The documentation states pretty plainly that dimensioned arrays declared as a common variable must be a static size.
Is there a technique or pattern that anyone has discovered to get around this? I want to resize my common arrays as needed, but I'm at a loss how I can make this work.
Is it possible?

Not sure about that one. Is this standard common or named common? Either way, I think they need to be static to protect their integrity, ie make sure the right and left hand both know what they're dealing with.

Hi Tom (and Brian as always),
Is it possible? No. Consider that Dim(ensioned) arrays are compiled into the object. Best not to change that.
Is there ... a pattern? Yes, by rule, I always add 10% extra in each direction when building a DIM array. When I have used up the extra attributes, then it's time to change the code.
(Very rough guide).
The rule is: Everything changes.
Merry
