Unable to remove a column from a Table variable

Is CC actually = 6 after you set it to column count?

 

Just curious, why bother to clear the table and recreate?  Tables are free, just create a new one for each test.

6 is the column count the max column index would be 5.

I need to use the table over a couple of different scripts. Creating it in the script i'd lose the values when the script ends.

When you remove a column, the column count reduces.... so, when you remove column index 0, now the max number of columns is down to 5.... when you remove 1, it's now 4, when you remove column 2, it's now 3... so, when you remove column 3... well, there are only columns 0, 1, and 2 any more... so column 3 is out of bounds.  What I would do, actually, is completely remove the variable and recreate it rather than add/remove columns.  There is a ProjectSuite.Variables.RemoveVariable method that will remove the variable... wrap it in logic to check "If variable exists, remove it" and then ProjectSuite.Variables.AddVariable to add it back in.  

 

The alternative option is to run your for loop as a "down to"... stepping down from max to 0.

Thanks, this gave me a nudge in the right direction, this works

For Col = CC-1 to 0 step -1

It's weird though that the standard "For x = 0 to n" works fine elsewhere though.
