Hi,

There was a warning in the documentation for a long time, and now it is 
effective: the support for static arrays has been removed.

Moreover, the New keyword is now mandatory if you want to instanciate an array 
at the same time you declare it.

Concretely, the following syntaxes are not possible anymore:

	Private MyStaticArray[16] As MyClass ' #1
	Private MyArray As MyClass[16] ' #2

The syntax #2 must be written that way:

	Private MyArray As New MyClass[16]

Static arrays will come back in the future (with structure support maybe, who 
knows?), but they will use the syntax #2, not the syntax #1. So don't be mixed 
up!

Regards,
