Array of values in 1 textbox
 

I'm having problems with a piece of code.
The form has two controls:
*Text Box
*Submit button

Users should be able to enter multiple lines in the textbox (this is
enabled) and each line is entered into a new row.

The code seems stuck in this section:
Dim mediaArray() As String
Dim count As Integer
Dim start As Integer
count = Split(txtMedia.Value, vbNewLine)
ReDim mediaArray(count) As String
mediaArray = txtMedia.Value

What am I doing wrong?

not sure what you're trying to do, but this worked for me

Private Sub TextBox1_Change()
Dim mediaArray() As String
Dim i As Long
mediaArray = Split(textbox1.Value, vbNewLine)
For i = LBound(mediaArray) To UBound(mediaArray)
Debug.Print mediaArray(i)
Next
End Sub

row 1: name 1
row 2: name 2
row 3: name 3

from 1 textbox where the input is:
name 1
name 2
name 3

Another way to do it is to have three text boxes in the form and don't have
multi line.

It is easier than having people mess with multi line text boxes.

It doesn't quite work because we don't know how many entries we will
need. For example, we could have 15 one time, and 2 the next. The
dynamic nature of the problem necesitates trusting the user a bit.
