Collection Issue
 

I have created a collection in a module and I would like to use the values in
the collection in another module.

Apparently collection is not a valid type for Public variables so I need to
know how to pass collections between modules.

Thanks for any help.

Collection Issue
 

Hi Cody,

Apparently collection is not a valid type for Public variables so I need
to
know how to pass collections between modules.


In Module1
'-------------

Option Explicit
Public MyCol As Collection

Sub Demo()
Dim i As Long

Set MyCol = New Collection

For i = 1 To 10
MyCol.Add "Book" & i, CStr(i)
Next i
End Sub


In Module2
'-------------

Option Explicit
Sub TestIt()
Dim i As Long

For i = 1 To MyCol.Count
Debug.Print MyCol(i)
Next i

End Sub

---
Regards,
Norman

That is basically how my code is running right now. However, when the code
in the second module is running the collection does not even appear in the
locals window as a variable in memory. I tried changing the code to an array
and I am still having the same problem.

In terms of my code:
The first module opens the second module which loads a form. After the user
inputs a value in the form the value is added to the array. This loops until
a certain value is reached. The sub is then exited and goes back to the code
in the first module. The array does not appear in the locals window in the
first module.

Thanks for any help!

Cody,

After running the demo code, did you look at the intermediate window?

Does the public variable not work between code in worksheets and code in
modules? The code is started and finished in the worksheets and uses
modules.

Hi Cody,

Sub Demo()
Dim i As Long

Set MyCol = New Collection

For i = 1 To 10
MyCol.Add "Book" & i, CStr(i)
Next i

End Sub

In Sheet1 Module
--------------------
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)

If Not Intersect(Target, Range("A1:A10")) Is Nothing Then
Target(1, 2).Value = MyCol(Target.Row)
End If
End Sub


Run the Demo sub to initialize the public Collection.

Then in Sheet1, make successive entries in cells A1 to A10. Now look At
cells B1:B10.

Look in VBA help at 'Public Statement' and 'Understanding Scope and
Visibility'.
