Array element Pointers?

[gregory_may]

Is there a way in VB.Net to declare a local variable that will manipulate an
array element .... kind of like an item pointer to a global array?

Can't you just access the array directly?

I am using a thread pool. When executing the callback, I was having trouble
getting the correct context information. I wrapped the array in a class &
am using a "key" to find the right structure context structure I need.

The reference types seemed to act weirdly in the thread callbacks. The
Classed wrapper seems to be fixing my problem ...

I didn't want to update directly ... its an array list of structures. The
syntax to get & update the right elements is very messy & doesn't actually
work correctly in Vb.Net. (see my other post, late binding problems).
