Default Returning Multiple Arguments from an Excel VBA Function


Hi Again.
I had such a good response last time I thought I would ask you gurus
another one.

I have written some VBA code to manipulate some strings in a
spreadsheet.
It works well but is getting quite long, and I am beginning to reuse
parts of it. So I thought I would break one part into a function.

I would like to pass 1 string argument to my function, perform some
fairly intensive operations on the string and return with 2 string
arguments.
I think its possible to return with two argumnets - but the syntax has
thrown me.

I think it has something to do with dimensioning the Function name as a
Variant or a 2 element array ?

Here's a rough example along the lines of what I want:

Sub Blah()

MyString = "123456"
AddressSplit (MyString)

End Sub

Function AddressSplit (TargetString)
AddressSplit(1) = "Test1"
AddressSplit(2) = "Test2"

End Function


How do I return the 2 arguments to the Main Subroutine so I can use
them ?
Thanks in Advance for any help.
