# ArrayDeleteAt

Deletes data from the specified array at the specified index position. Note that when an array index is deleted, index positions in the array are recalculated. For example, in an array containing the months of the year, deleting index position [5] removes the entry for May. If you then want to delete the entry for November, you delete index position [10], not [11], since the index positions were recalculated after index position [5] was removed.

Returns a Boolean TRUE on successful completion.

See also ArrayInsertAt.
