I want to obtain a vector in a 2D or 3D cartesian system.For example,i,j,and k are unit vector along x,y,and z axis.B is a vector,and B=Bx*i+By*j+Bz*k,which is one of arguments in function DOT(<vector>,<vector>).How should I express B to obtain a vector rather than use scalar Bx,By,Bz?
Thank you for your help!

B = VECTOR(Bx,By,Bz)

See "Vector Operators" in the Help Index.
