two dimension array

Hi.. I need to finish this job tonight before I go away. I know there's a lot of into available but I'm really trying to get it done as quickly as possible.. Can someone please make it simple for me . I'm building a poll program which is nearly done but now I want to put the vote counts with the names of the choices. In the db we have record fields by the names of pollchoice1, pollchoice2, and pollchoice3. To these we assign current choice names such as yes, no, or maybe or red, green or blue. I want to add the vote count to these fields along with the names? Would someone please point to an example or lay one out? I know it can be done but haven't worked with more than single dimension arrays before. Many thanks. Floyd Baker --
