Hiya yet again

This time I would like a userform to be able to update a
public array defined in a normal module.

I wrote code in the class module for my form to perform
the update when it closes but it returns an error,
thinking the array is a missing sub.

I don't really want to have to write to a worksheet then
retrieve the values from there.

Is there any way I can get a userform to return a value
depending on options chosen?

Thanks in advance

Nick

What is the actual error?

Since the array is global in a general module, the userform can update the
array. It doesn't return it.

General Module

Dim varr() as Variant

Sub showForm()
Userform1.Show
for i = lbound(varr) to ubound(varr)
debug.print varr(i)
Next
end Sub

in the userform module

Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
unload me
redim varr(1 to 10)
for i = 1 to 10
varr(i) = i^3
Next
End Sub

I'll explain myself better.

I have a form with some checkboxes, say 10 of them.

When the user have selected the options he wants he would
then click the Ok button.

I want a procedue behind the Ok button to hide the form
then assign the values of the checkboxes to an array which
then can be used by a different module to perform some
tasks.

But. You can't publicly declare an array in a class module
(the module behind the form). Therefore i cannot assign
the values to an array which can be read by any of my
normal modules.

If I try to do this then the module doesn't recognise the
existance of the array and thinks it is trying to run a
sub, then politely informs me the sub doesn't exist.

The only work around I can see to this is to write the
values to a worksheet then write more code in another
module to retrieve these values. It is a bit ungainly
though and should be unneccessary.

Hope this makes it a bit clearer.

Thanks Tom - I thought of that but it didn't work.

Double checking I found that I had only 'dimmed' the array
outside of subs in the general module rather than using
the public keyword.

I feel rather stupid now : )

Thanks anyhow

See my post for a method that works.

Note my example was incorrect as well

Dim varr() as Variant


should have been

Public Varr() as Variant
