Works fine here with val.  BTW: val& is limited to integers, so it  
isn't a good work around.
Same request as before. Please submit a short code sample that  
reproduces the problem.  I'm sure you are seeing a problem, but based  
on this testing your diagnosis is incorrect. Maybe send the FBtoC log  
with the error and the FB code that corresponds to the it.

'-------
dim as short     myArray(2)
dim as str15     s

SetRect( r, 0, 0, 480, 340 )
appearance window 1, "Edit$ Test", @r, _kDocumentWindowClass,  
_kWindowCompositingAttribute

SetRect( r, 200, 20, 460, 150 )

edit$(1) = "2"

myArray(val(edit$(1))) = 42

print myArray(2)
