Help with pointers [message #91718]

Hi

I return a 2D array in a Function (A DOUBLE = Array[216, 216]).

I wanted to return that array as a pointer and I did the following

A_Ptr = PTR_NEW(A, /NO_COPY)

RETURN, A_Ptr

I call this pointer on a different function like this:

Diff = total((A[ind] - B[ind])^2.)

But I got the following error:
"Unable to convert variable to type pointer."

I typed help, A, B
<PtrHeapVar9> DOUBLE = Array[216, 216]
B FLOAT = Array[216, 216]

I tried this as well Diff = total((*A[ind] - B[ind])^2.) but still doesn't work.

Can anyone please help with this?
