Hi all

On XL2003 I have written a function that builds 100,000 instances of
an object and stores them as a collection. Other functions then can
access this collection and perform further tasks.

Unfortunately this can take up a lot of memory, so in order to make
the best use of my memory I would like to be able to refer to a unique
identifier for the collection and first check if it exists. Then, if
it does exist I wish to set it to nothing before running the rest of
the function.

This is my first time using class modules. In the past I have always
used the type declaration to create objects and then stored them in an
element of a global, public array. In this way, if I then rebuilt
those objects I would end up just saving the data in the same element
and thus avoiding this memory problem.

Can anybody suggest the most efficient method to achieve my goal?

Many Thanks
