[RESOLVED] Passing An Array to a Funcion

Yesterday I asked how to have a function pass an arrayas its return value. Now I need to know how to pass the array back to a function. Here is what I currently have, but doesn't this make the variable a variant?

VB Code:

Public Function MyFunc(SourceArray) As String()

But if I try this then I get s syntax error:

VB Code:

Public Function MyFunc(SourceArray As String()) As String()

Does ParamArray have anything to do with it? I tried using this (without having any idea what I was doing), but to no avail. What does ParamArray do anyway?

just guessing....but

VB Code:

Public Function MyFunc(SourceArray() As String) As String()

??

I tried that, and it didn't give me a syntax error, but I never got around to running the program with that format because I thought it would give me an error.

The first line of code in my original post WORKS, but I think it makes the variable a variant and is therefor obviously slow and I would like to improve it if I can.

kfcSmitty - good guess... That is the correct declaration.

eyeRmonkey - ParamArray allows you to pass multiple arguments to a procedure which VB will then place into an array. The ParamArray argument can only be of type Variant, must be the last one in the procedure's argument list and is always considered optional.

VB Code:

Public Function CountNumbers(ParamArray Numbers() As Variant) As Long
    Dim lngIdx As Long
    
    For lngIdx = LBound(Numbers) To UBound(Numbers)
        CountNumbers = CountNumbers + Numbers(lngIdx)
    Next
    
End Function
 
Private Sub Form_Load()
 
Debug.Print CountNumbers(1, 4.5, 7, 100)
Debug.Print CountNumbers(84, 2)
Debug.Print CountNumbers
 
End Sub

Ok, will use Smitty's way. Thanks guys.
