Red Lion Crimson 3.1 writing array position into tag

I'm working with Crimson 3.1. Is there a way to write an array's position into a tag?

For example, I have an array size of 100, I'll call them "array[0]-array[100]". These are integer tags that will contain random numbers.

When I'm referencing data in position [0], I'd like to write "0" into another tag.

When I'm referencing data in position [99], I'd like to write "99" into another tag.

How could I achieve this?

You have almost answered you own question. Create an Integer Tag, if you are controlling it from the HMI it can be an internal tag, I will call it arrayPos. To read array[0] I would set arrayPos to 0 and then use array[arrayPos].

arrayPos could be local to the program instead of a global tag, but then you would have to declare it within the program and you can only use it within the program.

When I read that back it makes no sense, must be an electrical engineer thing.
