Multi-dimensional arrays
 

Hello,

I have a userform with 9 labels;

-lblA1, lblA2, lblA3
-lblB1, lblB2, lblB3
-lblC1, lblC2, lblC3

and on the same userform i have a button, when the user clicks it
want all the values from the labels to be stored into an array NB. th
user may press the button max times 6 - thus everytime the button i
pressed 9 variables are stored into the array and if the button clicke
6 times then 54 would be stored.

Any Ideas? I'm not so good on 2d arrays :eek

Multi-dimensional arrays
 

Something like this

Dim ary()

Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
Static counter As Long

counter = counter + 1
ReDim Preserve ary(1 To 2, 1 To counter)
ary(1, counter) = lblA1.Caption
ary(2, counter) = lblA2.caption
ary(3, counter) = lblA3.caption
ary(4, counter) = lblB1.Caption
ary(5, counter) = lblB2.caption
ary(6, counter) = lblB3.caption
ary(7, counter) = lblC1.Caption
ary(8, counter) = lblC2.caption
ary(9, counter) = lblC3.caption

End Sub

I believe a 3D array would be the most appropriate structure.
I took the liberty of modifying Bob's code to the following,

Dim ary()

Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
Static Counter As Long
Counter = Counter + 1
ReDim Preserve ary(1 To 3, 1 To 3, 1 To Counter)
ary(1, 1, Counter) = lblA1.Caption
ary(2, 1, Counter) = lblA2.Caption
ary(3, 1, Counter) = lblA3.Caption
ary(1, 2, Counter) = lblB1.Caption
ary(2, 2, Counter) = lblB2.Caption
ary(3, 2, Counter) = lblB3.Caption
ary(1, 3, Counter) = lblC1.Caption
ary(2, 3, Counter) = lblC2.Caption
ary(3, 3, Counter) = lblC3.Caption
End Sub

I would agree with you if you had loops per dimension, but as one dimension
is loaded item by item, I cannot see the point of adding a further dimension
that just complicates the code and makes maintenance more difficult.

Multi-dimensional arrays
 

Thanks guys for your help - it has been very helpful! I am using the 2-d
array as suggested at the moment, but may switch to the 3-d as i am
going to loop my values into it!

Hi Bob,

Perhaps I read too much into the OP's label naming convention.

-lblA1, lblA2, lblA3
-lblB1, lblB2, lblB3
-lblC1, lblC2, lblC3

I looked at that and saw 3 A's, 3 B's & 3 C's.
I also saw 3 1's, 3 2's & 3 3's.
There were also the 6 separate instances of the button being clicked.
A 3D array would allow the OP to easily loop through any of the above groups.

If the OP had named his labels lbl1 - lbl9 , I would have chosen a 2D array.
I think I should stop trying to read between the lines :-)

Vic Eldridge

Hi Bob,

Shouldn't
ReDim Preserve ary(*1 To 2*, 1 To counter) be
ReDim Preserve ary(*1 To 9*, 1 To counter)?
