Getting the Ubound from a second or third dimension

[jmiller]

I have a three dimensional array, but the the second and third dimensions are all different sizes.
like:
anArray(0,0 to 8)
anArray(1,0 to 12)
When you say Ubound(anArray), it would return 1 (for this case). But say I want to get the second dimension Ubound for each of the first dimensions?
this doesn't work (as far as i know): ubound(anArray(0)) (under my assumption this would return 8, but like i said, it doesn't work).
Please tell me something that does work.
thanks,
jmiller

Dim anArray(0,0 to 8)
Dim anOtherArray(1,0 to 12)
 
'Syntax is Ubound(Variable,Dimension) or Lbound(Variable,Dimension) 
 
Debug.Print Ubound(anArray,1) 'Returns 0
Debug.Print LBound(anArray,1) 'Returns 0
Debug.Print UBound(anArray,2) 'Returns 8

UBound Function


Returns aLong containing the largest available subscript for the indicated dimension of anarray.

Syntax

UBound(arrayname[, dimension])

The UBound function syntax has these parts:

Part Description
arrayname Required. Name of the arrayvariable; follows standard variable naming conventions.
dimension Optional; Variant (Long). Whole number indicating which dimension's upper bound is returned. Use 1 for the first dimension, 2 for the second, and so on. If dimension is omitted, 1 is assumed.


Remarks

The UBound function is used with the LBound function to determine the size of an array. Use the LBound function to find the lower limit of an array dimension.

UBound returns the following values for an array with these dimensions:

Dim A(1 To 100, 0 To 3, -3 To 4)
Statement Return Value
UBound(A, 1) 100
UBound(A, 2) 3
UBound(A, 3) 4
