What is an array?

RE: Arrays
Hi Kelvin
An array is a data structure consisting of elements that are accessed by indexing.
In most programming languages each element has the same data type and the array occupies a contiguous area of storage.
In VBA as with most other languages Variables normally only store a single value but, in some situations, it is useful to declare a variable as an Array that can store a series of related values.
The indexing in an array begins at 0 so declaring an array as
Dim SalesYear(5) as Integer
will allow you to store 6 years (0 t0 5)
Then in the code SalesYear(3) will return the value stored in that section of the array
Hope this helps
Carlos
