2d Array access by other classes

In my program I have a number of classes. In one of these a 2D array of structs is created using

array = new Variables *[rows];
for (int j = 0; j < rows; j++)
{
array[j] = new Variables[cols];
}

In one of my other classes one of my methods is querying the array to get a bool value from it using:
// accessing the constructor of the array class
Array arrayCells;

for (int i=0; i < nRows; i++)
{
for (int j=0; j < nCols; j++)
{
bool cell = arrayCells.checkCellStatus(i,j);
}
}

However it always returns a false bool value for the whole array even though I know they aren't all false.

I think I might need to pass the array to the class thats trying to access it through a constructor but when i tried that the compiler says that it cant find matching function to the structure I declared in the array class

Im new to c++ programming and seem to have lost my way any help that some one can give to show me the way back would be much appreciated.

You need to input the object's pointer to the function that uses it.

f.ex. (very simplified)

Code:

---

int main(void)
{
  Array NewArray;
  CheckCells(&NewArray);  // passes the object's pointer to the function
}
// --- or ---
int main(void)
{
  Array* pNewArray = new Array;
  CheckCells(pNewArray);  // also passes the pointer
  delete pNewArray;
}



bool CheckCells(Array* pArray)
{
  for (int i=0; i < nRows; i++)
    for (int j=0; j < nCols; j++)
      bool cell = arrayCells.checkCellStatus(i,j);
}

I hope this helps
