Pasting an array into a range

Maybe that's it - I'm working in xl97. I forgot to
mention that. Is there a fix to make it work in 97?

There are some limitations on the built-in TRANSPOSE function. You are
running into the one that limits, in xl2000 and prior, the operation of
the built-in function to 5461 elements when transferring between
worksheets and VBA arrays. Another limitation, which I assume remains
beyond xl2000 though I am not positive, is that the type of the array is
not preserved by the built-in function when transferring from VBA array
to VBA array. The following is a more general purpose Transpose function
without the limitations; watch for word wrap.

Function ArrayTranspose(InputArray)
'This function returns the transpose of
'the input array or range; it is designed
'to avoid the limitation on the number of
'array elements and type of array that the
'worksheet TRANSPOSE Function has.

'Declare the variables
Dim outputArrayTranspose As Variant, arr As Variant, p As Integer
Dim i As Long, j As Long

'Check to confirm that the input array
'is an array or multicell range
If IsArray(InputArray) Then

'If so, convert an input range to a
'true array
arr = InputArray

'Load the number of dimensions of
'the input array to a variable
On Error Resume Next

'Loop until an error occurs
i = 1
Do
z = UBound(arr, i)
i = i + 1
Loop While Err = 0

'Reset the error value for use with other procedures
Err = 0

'Return the number of dimensions
p = i - 2
End If

If Not IsArray(InputArray) Or p 2 Then
Msg = "#ERROR! The function accepts only multi-cell ranges and
1D or 2D arrays."
If TypeOf Application.Caller Is Range Then
ArrayTranspose = Msg
Else
MsgBox Msg, 16
End If
Exit Function
End If

'Load the output array from a one-
'dimensional input array
If p = 1 Then

Select Case TypeName(arr)
Case "Object()"
ReDim outputArrayTranspose(LBound(arr) To UBound(arr),
LBound(arr) To LBound(arr)) As Object
For i = LBound(outputArrayTranspose) To
UBound(outputArrayTranspose)
Set outputArrayTranspose(i,
LBound(outputArrayTranspose)) = arr(i)

Your code works as posted for me in Excel 2002.

Hi all:

I get a runtime 'type mismatch' on the last statement
(i.e., r.Value = ). Any thoughts?

Sub test()
Dim r As Range
Set r = ActiveSheet.Range("A1:A50000")

Dim arr() As Long
Dim i As Long
ReDim arr(1 To 50000)
For i = 1 To 50000
arr(i) = i
Next i

r.Value = Application.WorksheetFunction.Transpose(arr)

End Sub

Thanks, Tony
