I can't redimension the array if I don't know the number of lines in the file CODE Open "GRADES.TXT" For Input As #1 ' Opens file for input ReDim grades(1 To numGrades) As Integer ' Redims array to hold the grades Dim i As Integer ' dims counter variable For i = 1 To numGrades Input #1, grades(i) Next i Close #1 ' Closes file
