array

function abc
lparameter a_sorting
for m.ii=1 to alen(a_sorting)
? a_sorting[m.ii]
endfor

When I compiled the function, Foxpro complained:

Unknown A_SORTING - Undefined

How could I stop Foxpro from complaining as it's correct.

i tried compiling your code in a program on VFP8 and did not get a problem.
but i seem to remember thier is a setting about how arrays are passed as
parameters and if you do it one way it just passes the value of on part of
the array, not the entire array.

To avoid this warning, add a line:
EXTERNAL ARRAY a_sorting
somewhere in the function. A good place would be right after the LPARAMETER
line, but it could be placed elsewhere within the function.

I should have posted the exact lines of codes. :)
