Float Lookup table

Hi ,
Suppose I have two tables...one for byte variables & another for float variables. I use "RecordPointer" byte to push & pop data from the table:
Dim  FloatTable[8]  as Float
Dim  ByteTable[8]   as Byte
Dim  RecordPointer  as Byte

Does FloatTable[RecordPointer] automatically point to the (RecordPointer+4) position of the FloatTable ? Or to get the first float value I have to use FloatTable[0] & to get the secondfloat value I have to use FloatTable[4]?
 
A small confusion!!

Regards

An array element number will return the full identifier type. i.e. Byte, Word, Long, DWord, Float etc, as long as the assignment is teh required variable type.

For example:

MyFloat = FloatArray[bIndex]

Will return the array value from the element position bIndex, as a Floating Point.

However...

MyWord = FloatArray[bIndex]

Will return the array value from the element position bIndex, as a 16-bit Word.
