			FUNCTION: LBound( ) Implemented in version 1.0 *LBound(ArrayName, Dimension)* The LBound function returns the lower limit for the elements in an array. By default, in the current versions of VBScript, the LBound function always returns a zero. There is one mandatory argument. ArrayName The ArrayName argument is the name of the array. Do not include the parenthesis with the array name. Code: <% Dim catarray(3) %> <% catarray(0) = "Mountain lion" %> <% catarray(1) = "Bobcat" %> <% catarray(2) = "Jaguar" %> <% =LBound(catarray) %> Output: 0 There is one optional argument. *Dimension* The optional *Dimension* argument is used to identify which index you are determining the lower bounds for in a multi-dimensional array. Code: <% Dim fisharray(2,3) %> <% fisharray(0,0) = "Neon tetra" %> <% fisharray(0,1) = "Angle fish" %> <% fisharray(0,2) = "Discus" %> <% fisharray(1,0) = "Golden dojo" %> <% fisharray(1,1) = "Clown loach" %> <% fisharray(1,2) = "Betta" %> <% =LBound(fisharray, 2) %> Output: 0
