Hi there, just a quick one for you geniouses.

I'm working with vb.net on a ppc.

Which data type is best to use, i need to insert and REMOVE a librarian
id#(string), their location(integer) and a time.

I was using multi-dimension array quite happily

myarray(i,0) = "123456"
myarray(i,1) = 2
myarray(i,2) = 11:26

Now i come to removing the entry its got more complicated and i wondered if
there was a better way of doing this???????

Please help, thanks ever so much.
 
Consider using your own data type which would contain all the fields you
need:

Public Class SomeStiff
Public ID As String
Public Location As Int32
Public Time As DateTime
End Class

You can use ArrayList or Hashtable to store such objects; it would be easy
to add/remove them.

Or use DataTable with columns you want.
