Hi, how can i create a 2D array that has “emptyslot” initially stored in every of its slot. My code is:

grid = new Array();  
for (j=1;j\<=10;j++){  
for (i=1;i\<=6;i++){  
grid\*[j] = “emptyslot”;  
}  
}

Then i did the trace on a blank movieclip:

onClipEvent (enterFrame){  
trace(grid);  
}

It returned:

Undefined  
Undefined  
Undefined  
Undefined  
Undefined  
Undefined  
Undefined  
Undefined  
Undefined

etc etc…
