If Range("C1") is in MyArray
 

Being very unfamiliar with arrays, but impressed with their worth, I am
trying to code with an array. I have defined MyArray, and now want to check
to see if the cell value in "C1" is the same as any of my array values. How
do I code that?

Say: MyArray("one", "two", "three", "four", "five", "six", "seven",
"eight")
If Range("C1").value = [...is in MyArray] then
(do something)
End

How do I test for C1's value being in MyArray? (Sorry if this is unclear; I
am very trying...)

TIA

If Range("C1") is in MyArray
 

My usual approach is

If IsNumeric(Application.Match(Range("C1").Value, MyArray, 0)) Then
'Is in the array
End If

Thanks, Juan, for your help.

I'm too ignorant to use your method, but will try it when I understand it.

The following code seemed to "work" for me:
For H = 1 To 12
If Range("F" & N) = MyArray(H) Then
(do something)
End If
Next

My method works by using the MATCH() worksheet function. Basically, in
Excel you would use it like

=MATCH(C1, A1:A100, 0)

to look for the value of C1 in the array A1:A100, using an exact match (0 as
the third parameter)

If the value is found, MATCH() returns a number (the position of C1 inside
the array), else, it return #N/A. So, what the code does is check the
result of MATCH(), if its a number, then your value is in the array, if not,
then it will return an error, which means that it's not in it.
