Hi,

I want to read a list of string-values out of cells (e.g. H2:H8) in
Excel into a variable (array) of excel-vba. Is there another
possibility to achieve this than reading one value after the other?

Then I want to check with a single code-line if a value is part of the
array and continue execution depending on the result:

if var_test "is part of" var_array then ......

Can anybody tell me how to do this?

Thx for your help
Oliver

Oliver, try dimming a range, then use .Find
Dim r As Range
Dim fRange As Range
Set r = Range("H2:H8")
Set fRange = r.Find(What:="YourText") 'Add other parameters as
neccessary
If fRange Is Nothing Then 'Not Found

if that doesn't work for you try searching for "Scripting.Dictionary"
