Dim MyGrid as Variant
MyGrid= Range("B2:D5").Value

works fine for me in Excel 97.

Dim MyGrid() as Variant
MyGrid= Range("B2:D5").Value

doesn't work in Excel 97, VBA5

Charlie,

To add to Bob's post...
You cannot assign to an array in Excel 97.
In later versions you must use the Value property of the
range not the Text property, so...
MyGrid= Range("B2:D5").Value

Hi,
I can move a 2D array to a range but how do I move a selected range to a
2D
array?
Dim MyGrid() As String
Range("A9").Select
Range(Selection, ActiveCell.SpecialCells(xlLastCell)).Select
MyGrid = Selection.Text
(or)
MyGrid = Range("B2:D5").Text
Thanks
