UDF Can't return more than 255 chars???

I agree that if i specify the member, then it works, but that is not my

returning an array. My real application returns an array with multiple

purposes.
If you specify the member of the array, it seems to work OK.
In other words, in function1:
HOHO = v(0,0)
--ron
I seem to recall Harlan Grove writing about some obscure limitations that Excel
has in handling strings 255 characters under certain circumstances. It is
clear that, within the UDF, HOHO does, indeed, contain the long string.
Perhaps you could use a Sub to assign elements of the array to various cells.
Or perhaps someone else has a proper solution.
