You have no code at all for an array there..

How can you be on the right track with no code? lol

[Iron_Cross]

Umm...what are you tryng to do? To use an array (for example and array of int's) you just do this

int[] dieSides = new int[6];
dieSides[0] = 1;
dieSides[1] = 2;
etc..

and please use the [*code] and[/code] tags (without the *)
