does VB have anything like a struct in c++

[LaVolpe]

I'm not sure what you are asking, but that sounds a lot like a UDT (user-defined type) or a UDT within a UDT

Private Type StudentStruct
     Name As String
     TestScore As Integer
End Type
Private Type SchoolStruct
    Count As Long                               ' how many StudentStruct in UDT
    StudentData() As StudentStruct       ' collection of StudentStruct's
End Type

Dim mySchool As SchoolStruct

Private Sub Command1_Click()
     ReDim mySchool.StudentData(0 to 1)
     mySchool.Count = 2
     With mySchool
          .StudentData(0).Name = "Hans"
          .StudentData(0).TestScore = 88
          .StudentData(1).Name = "LaVolpe"
          .StudentData(1).TestScore = 110  ' ;)
      End With

      Dim i As Integer
      For I = 0 To mySchool.Count - 1
          MsgBox mySchool.StudentData(i).Name  & " scored " & mySchool.StudentData(i).TestScore
      Next
End Sub

Should you need to resize the array later:

mySchool.Count = mySchool.Count + 1
ReDim Preserve mySchool.StudentData(0 To mySchool.Count -1)

Something like that or something else? If something else you might want to describe it a bit better.
