Defining a Dyanmic Array in User Defined Type
 

How would you define a dynamic array in a UDT? For instance, how could I do
something like:

Type InventoryList

nItems As Long

inventory(1 to nItems) As Long

End Type

Cheers.

Dim inventory() As Long
Dim nItems As Long
nItems = 6
ReDim inventory(1 To nItems) As Long

Thanks for your suggestion but this is not a user defined type.

I'd use:

Option Explicit
Type InventoryList
nItems As Long
Inventory() As Long
End Type
Sub aaa()
Dim myInventory(1 To 3) As InventoryList
Dim iCtr As Long
Dim nCtr As Long

For iCtr = LBound(myInventory) To UBound(myInventory)
myInventory(iCtr).nItems = 3
ReDim myInventory(iCtr).Inventory(1 To myInventory(iCtr).nItems)
'put some values in
For nCtr = 1 To myInventory(iCtr).nItems
myInventory(iCtr).Inventory(nCtr) = 2 * nCtr
Next nCtr
Next iCtr
End Sub

This is what I did on my laptop (Excel 2007) last night but it wouldn't work.
When I try the same thing this morning on my work PC (Excel 2003) then it
works. Let me re-try it on my laptop tonight to see.

Thanks Dave for your solution.
