Passing a list to an array
 

Just curious to know if it is possible to convert a listbox of values
to an array, such as:

Dim arrA as variant
with me.listbox1
arrA = array(.list)
end with

Seems like functionality that would make sense.
It's a pain to do the for i = 0 to .listcount - 1 thing to
create an array.

TIA,
Matt

Matt,

With a small change...remove "array".

Dim arrA As Variant
arrA = Me.ListBox1.List

Thanks Jim but oddly the code below didn't work in 2002 for
me...probably missed something dumb

Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
Me.ListBox1.AddItem Me.TextBox1
End Sub

Private Sub CommandButton2_Click()
Dim arrVariant As Variant
arrVariant = Me.ListBox1.List
MsgBox arrVariant(0) ' type 13 err
End Sub

TIA,
Matt

That array returned by the .list property (for a single column) is a 2 dimensional array.
So you have to specify the column as well as the row...
Msgbox arrVariant(0, 0)
