Warning: The sizes of the source and destination arrays passed to 'Copy array' did not match

Description

The Copy array statement copies the contents of one array variable into another array, overwriting what is already there. This warning is generated if the sizes of the arrays are not the same, i.e. they don't have the same number of values.

Example

The following example shows the Copy array statement in use:

Figure 1. Copying the contents of an array variable into a different array variable.

More Information

If this warning is generated, the procedure will still continue running and will copy what it can of the array. If the array being copied from is larger than the array being copied to, then the extra values will be ignored and not copied. If the array being copied from is smaller than the one being copied to, then the extra array indexes will still contain their previous values.
