System.Array

This is an abstract base class which means you cannot create an instance of this class
This class provides a CreateInstance method for creating an instance of an array.
The first parameter is the type.
The second parameter is the dimension
Once an array has been created, we can use the SetValue method to add items to an array


System.Array myArray; 
myArray = System.Array.CreateInstance(GetType(string),3);
myArray.SetValue("one",0);
myArray.SetValue("two",1);
myArray.SetValue("three",2);
myArray = System.Array.CreateInstance(GetType(string),3,"one","two","three");

sValue = System.Convert.ToString(myArray.GetValue(2));
