Okay...I followed through the link you gave me...and i found another 
thread dealing with Array en Grid:

http://www.ruby-forum.com/topic/88174#167392

In the last two reactions I think i found a starting point for my 
problem...

I replaced the numbers so now I have this:

require 'enumerator'

@array = (1..196).to_a
@grid = Array.new(14) {|idx| Array.new(14)}

@array.each_with_index do |val, idx|
  @grid[idx/14][idx%14] = val
end

p @grid

I then get to have an array from 1..196 and those are divided in a grid 
of [[1..14],[15..28], .. ,[183..196]]

What I want to do next is work with these cells...make them 'live' so to 
say...

Do i need to put this array in some sort of database? So i get to have 
some columns where one column represents the cells numbers 1..196 some 
other columns then need to have some cell characteristics, and with 
these characteristics and a formula (which i already have) the cell 
types need to be assigned (infrastructure, housing, facilities etc.)

Can anyone help me any further? I would be very grateful for the help...
