An Array is a collection of elements (variables) of the same data type. When there are large lists of variables and data, it is easier to contain the data in an array than have large amounts of separate variables to hold the data. Think of an element as a placeholder for piece of data.
Array Syntax
DIM array_name(number_of_items) AS datatype
