alice-teacher Alice Array Elements calling Methods

[Donald Slater]

Terri,
Would you mind sending a copy of your program? I am trying to recreate the problem based on your description, but I do not think I am getting it right, as everything seems to be working for me… I must be missing something…

Also, I am using the latest download of Alice available on alice.org <http://alice.org/> (3.5). We added set and get indexed value into procedure and function list for all array properties, but I do not think that is related to your issue. But if you are using an older version of Alice you might try it.

Looking forward to hearing from you.

All the best,
Don Slater
