Yes, but the code would still have been "wrong." Suppose one or
both of the index types had been enumerations (e.g., the days of
the week), then the attributes 'First, 'Last, and 'Range would yield
enumeration values. Then 'First + 1 would be illegal.
Furthermore, the expression inside the parenthesis must be
a positive value (within the dimensions -- not the index ranges -- of the
array).
