You can probably use the Filter function to do your test...

If UBound(Filter(ArrayNames, "MyName")) = 0 Then
' Do something
Else
' Do something else
End If

The above will do an exact case search (so that "rick" would not match
"Rick"). If you need a case insensitive search, you could use this...

If UBound(Filter(ArrayNames, "ue", , vbTextCompare)) = 0 Then

for the If/Then test instead. I don't think you can get any false positives
doing it this way... I mention this because Filter works like InStr and will
find substrings with in the whole text; but that shouldn't matter for the
type of test you described as it will also find the exact match as well as
any substring matches.

Hi All,

I have an array with 29 names held in it, I am wanting to do a if
statement using the content of the Array.

If "MyName" is in ArrayName() Then
Do somthing
else
Do somthing else
End If

I don't know how to go about setting it out.

Can anyone advise?

Many Thanks

Mark
