Using Variant Arrays

My question is this. I am using the type variant in a program I am writing. Now I created an array using
varArrayCreate and I will put some sample sode below. Now it is easy to read data into the variant array except when you get to the last record to read in and I keep getting list index out of bounds. Now I have tried a few different things to try and stop giving me this error. For example, if I made
the following array
tempArray := varArrayCreate([1,10],varVariant) I tried to
read in only up to tempArray[9] and still get list index is out of bounds. Now this is imossible since I am not at the end of the array. Very strange and if anyone can shed some light on this let me know. I must to doing some damn simple
the wrong way. I had a full head of hair before this problem came up. Cheers.

If (Table2.Findkey([TempJobNo]) = false) then
begin
  TotalFields := Table1.FieldCount ;
  TempArray := varArrayCreate([0,TotalFields-1],varVariant);
    For i := 0 to TotalFields-1 do
    begin
      TempArray[i] := Table1.Fields[i].AsVariant ;
      Table1.Next ;
      TempJobNo := Table1.Fieldbyname('JOB_NO').AsString ;
    end
    else
    begin
      Table1.Next ;
      TempJobNo := Table1.Fieldbyname('JOB_NO').AsString ;
    end;
  end;

 {THANKS IN ADVANCE ANYONE}
