Keeper,

What is the type of o when you look at it in the debugger? Is it
"System.Single[*]" or does it say something else? I've never seen
"System.Single[*]" before...

type in the debugger = "System.Single[*]"

"System.Single[*]" or does it say something else? I've never seen

class object (COM-object) return dimension "System.Single[*]".

That probably indicates that the array has a non-zero lower bound,
which makes in incompatible with a regular Single[]. You can still
access each element with System.Array.GetValue().

[*] is a COM thingy.
