I am just trying to create an array function that returns an array containing
the values in a source Range. It shouldn't be that difficult, right? My
source is below. I am running into the problem on this line: "Result(i, j) =
Source(i, j).Value". The Result element is Empty after the assignment, even
though Source(i,j).Value is not Empty. Help!? If you know why this assignment
isn't working or if you know a better way to do this, please let me know.

Function Range2Array(Source As Range) As Variant
Dim rowCount, colCount As Integer
rowCount = Source.Rows.count
colCount = Source.Columns.count
' Ensure target is a range equal in size to source
If Not (TypeOf Application.Caller Is Range _
And Application.Caller.Columns.count = colCount _
And Application.Caller.Rows.count = rowCount _
) Then
Exit Function
End If
' Load result array
Dim Result() As Variant
ReDim Result(1 To rowCount, 1 To colCount) As Variant
Dim i, j As Integer
Result(1, 1) = "Test"
For i = 1 To rowCount
For j = 1 To colCount
' At this point Source(i,j).Value is not Empty
Result(i, j) = Source(i, j).Value
' At this point the value of Result is Empty.
Next j
Next i
' Return result array
Test = Result
End Function
