Turns out, there were two arrays in the same procedure.
Having fixed the first one by making it local, just got fixated on that
array.  Having looked at the line number again that the error was being
reported against, it was actually the second array it was complaing about.  

Now moved dimensioning of second array out of the procedure, and all is
working as expected.

Again, thanks for your assistance with dimensioning a local array.
