Best way to "filter" an array
Hello
Option Base 1
Sub PutNondups()
Dim v(10)
Dim v2()
v(1) = "A"
v(2) = "B"
v(3) = "C"
v(4) = "A"
v(5) = "B"
v(6) = "A"
v(7) = "B"
v(8) = "A"
v(9) = "B"
v(10) = "C"
Dim Coll As New Collection
For Each Elt In v
On Error Resume Next
Coll.Add Elt, CStr(Elt)
If Err.Number = 0 Then
ReDim Preserve v2(1 To Coll.Count)
v2(Coll.Count) = Elt
End If
On Error GoTo 0
Next
For i = LBound(v2) To UBound(v2)
MsgBox v2(i)
Next i
End Sub

I have a 1-dimensional array whose members are single letter values, i.e.
V(1) = "A"
V(2) = "B"
V(3) = "C"
V(4) = "A"
V(5) = "B"
V(6) = "A"
V(7) = "B"
V(8) = "A"
V(9) = "B"
V(10) = "C"
I'd like to create a new array that is a filtered version of the array
above, where all duplicates are removed so that each member of the new
array is unique and not repeated, i.e.
A(1) = "A"
A(2) = "B"
A(3) = "C"
Any ideas on the best method? I can possibly visualize doing this with
some loops, but I'm having trouble getting my head around it. Any ideas
welcome.
Thanks!
