New array with old array elements
 

I am looking to create a new array with elements of a previously
created array. Whe

For Each cell In Ratings
ReDim Preserve Ratings1(6, rw)

Ratings1(0, rw) = Ratings(0, rw)
Ratings1(1, rw) = Ratings(1, rw)
Ratings1(2, rw) = Ratings(2, rw)
Ratings1(3, rw) = Ratings(3, rw)
Ratings1(4, rw) = Ratings(4, rw)
Ratings1(5, rw) = Ratings(5, rw)
rw = rw - 1
Next Cell

"Ratings" is my old array and "Ratings1" is my new array that i am
creating. "Ratings" is in the same sub and will have the same number
of row elements. For some reason this is not working. When im done not
all elements of Ratings1 will be the same as the Ratings, but im just
trying figure this part out. Thanks

New array with old array elements
 

What are you trying to do?

You setup a loop to look through each cell in Ratings, then ignore the value
obtained each time. You redim your array each iteration of the loop, thereby
losing data each time. etc.

not just redim. I want to create array Ratings1 from Ratings.

New array with old array elements
 

not just redim. I want to create array Ratings1 from Ratings.

If you mean copy Ratings to Ratings1, simply

Ratings1 = Ratings

Ratings may have been declared as an array but ....

Dim Ratings1 as Variant

Thanks, but in reality i want to have some rows of the new array to be
different values, i was more just looking for the reason that i
couldn't just assign elements of the old array to elements of the new
array by saying that for example Ratings1(1, 5) = Ratings(1,5). For
some reason this is not working.

Then maybe either array doesn't have that particular element.

How is Ratings populated, and where does rw get set?

Sorry I don't follow what you are trying to do

Ratings1(1, 5) = Ratings(1,5).

Providing each array is sized to accommodate (1,5), and Ratings1 can accept
similar data type to that in Ratings(1,5), the above will work

New array with old array elements
 

I tried to decipher your code but gave up. Is it possible to post a
simplified example that can be pasted into a module.

Suggest don't name your procedure as the same name as one of its arrays,
Public Sub Ratings()
Dim Ratings()

If your array has multiple columns probably best not to do this
For Each cell In Ratings
or how to track which dimension you are in

instead try -

dim r as long, c as long
for r = lbound(Ratings) to ubound(Ratings)
for c = lbound(Ratings, 2) to ubound(Ratings, 2)

x = Ratings(r,c)

Try

lBound(Ratings, 2) to Ubound(Ratings, 2)

then as I mentioned before

For rw = lBound(Ratings, 2) to Ubound(Ratings, 2)
Ratings1(0, rw) = I don't understand the lookup part
If you need to track the original cell row ref, give Ratings an extra level
in the first dimension and store
the row number in that for later use with the Lookup

and why the rw = rw - 1
maybe Step - 1 ?
Ratings1(1, rw) = Ratings(1, rw)
Ratings1(2, rw) = Ratings(2, rw)
Next

In passing -
Dim Ratings(), rTicker(), Ratings1() As String
is same as
Dim Ratings() As Variant, rTicker() As Variant, Ratings1() As String

perhaps also
Dim rw as Long
