Test for end of array of objects?
 

If I'm looping thru an array of objects with 'For Each',
how do I test for the last good one?

If I test for "" or 0, it says "not supported"

If I test for Nothing, it says "invalid use of object"

Thanks,
Peter.

Whatever you're iterating through probably has a "count" property, so
you could try using a counter and checking to see if you're on the
last item.

Or just keep a reference to the last object and use it once you're out
of the loop.

It doesn't have a Count, probably because it's a dynamic construct.

Then you could iterate the objects into a variant array and loop
through that instead (checking the ubound)

I think the problem is doing the test of the Variant, whereever it comes
from.

Why do I have to use a Variant anyway? Shouldn't it understand if I use
the class of the contained objects?

Peter,
Try it as the object and see what compile error you get.

Peter,
If it is an array, you'll LBound & UBound. No ?

peter,
In a loop, you may use TypeName(element)??

A sample in use.

Why do I have to use a Variant anyway?
Please have a look at the For Each...Next Statement in the VBA help.

For arrays, element can only be a Variant variable.

Alternative approach. Create a collection class for the objects and build a
Count property.
