Clearing multiple variable instances

rcm14

If I setup multiple instances of a variable in the VAR block, can I clear all the instances at once?

Essentially my question is this: Would the following code work?

VAR[INDENT]long symbol[30]
[/INDENT]

PUB Main
[INDENT]
'Would the line below clear each instance of the variable "symbol"
symbol~
...
...[/INDENT]

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

No. You have to do it in each instance of the object that declares the variable. VAR variable "instances" are per-object. Is that what you meant when you used the word "instances"?

My attempt at ESP says this is what rcm14 wants to do.

longfill(@symbol, 0, 30)

Global variables start out zero.

Duane,

I'll bet you're right. "Instance", in this case means "element" (of the array).
