Help getting value into an array

MIke Lumley

Hi All Noobi here

I'm having trouble getting a value into an array. When debugging PM1 will have a value 1-15 I can see that.
But when it hits 2nd line MM1 never gets a value, in the 3rd line theres still no value and when i check dMain[0,1] it says 0.
If I change MM1 in the 3rd line to a number and check dMain[0,1] it has the same number!!!!!!
Where am I going wrong should this work?
With both MM1 & MP1 I have declared them at form level and tried in the method but nether seem to work Ahhhh
Is there an easer way to do this as I had done similar in VB but have deleted some of the project.
Any help any help would be greatly appreciated.

PM1 = randMain.Next(15);
int MM1 = Numbers[PM1] ;
dMain[0,1] = MM1;
return;

I've now shrunk it down to:

dMain[0,1] = Numbers[randMain.Next(15)];

But to no avail

Thanks in advance.
Mike.

Accepted answer
The first point I'd make is that PM1 will actually have a value between 0 and 14, as it's exclusive of the upper bound of 15. See:

Where are you declaring the Numbers array or list? How big is it and are you sure you've populated it?

Hi yea what a thicko I am!!
I bypassed populating it to do something else and forgot to put it back in the loop!!
Thank you so much Vulpes
for pointing that out, just spent 4 hours wondering why it was going wrong Ahhh.
I love thise C# so much nicer than VB. Been at it for 3 weeks now.

Thank you again, and for being so quick your a star.
