LBound
Returns the lower bound of an array's dimension
Syntax
`
Declare Function LBound ( array() As Any, ByVal dimension As Integer = 1 ) As Integer
`
Usage
`
result = LBound( array [, dimension ] )
`
Parameters
`array`
an array of any type
`dimension`
the dimension to get lower bound of
Return Value
Returns the lower bound of an array's dimension.
Description
`LBound` returns the lowest value that can be used as an index into a particular dimension of an array.
Array dimensions are numbered from one (1) to n, where n is the total number of dimensions. If `dimension` is not specified, `LBound` will return the lower bound of the first dimension. If `dimension` is less than one (1) or greater than the total number of dimensions (n) in the array, the result is undefined.
Example
`
Dim array(-10 To 10, 5 To 15, 1 To 2) As Integer
Print LBound(array) 'returns -10
Print LBound(array, 2) 'returns 5
Print LBound(array, 3) 'returns 1
