joining array, but still read as number

Apr 12th, 2007

Hello.
I have array that i deffered from my database.

For i=0 to 4
Point(i)=Cint(Rs("Point"))
Name(i)=Rs("Name")
rs.MoveNext
next

The result is giving me :
Point(0)
Point(1)
Point(2)
Point(3)

Name(0)
Name(1)
Name(2)
Name(3)

I would like to built a chart from it.
The chart goes this way:

ShowChart Array(Point(0),Point(1),Point(2),Point(3),Point(4)), Array(Name(0),Name(1),Name(2),Name(3),Name(4))

That works.
But i want to simplify the code.

I tried to use the join(Point,",") and join(Name,",") , but it give us string. Which makes the chart doesnt work.

Is there any joining function in ASP but still give us a numeric value?
Or anybody can show me to simplify the above code?

Thanks for the helps...

The join function returns a string by definition so that isn't the function your looking for. As for a simpler way of doing it, Point and Name are already arrays, so there's no point in doing this the long way round, instead try someting like this

ShowChart Point, Name

Okay...
That simply works.
