Function as an array?

[CrAz3D]

I have a function that I'd like to have return info in an array.  Is this possible or should I seperate each item and then split the items when the function info is recieved?

Thanks

code might be something like...

Code Select Expand

MsgBox UBound(GetInfo)
o]

Code Select Expand

function getinfo () as array?
ubound(getinfo)= hi
redim preserve getinfo(ubound(getinfo)+1)

Code Select Expand

Public Function ReturnArr() As String()
    ReturnArr = Split("returns|an|array", "|")
End Function

That semi-confuses me...

Code Select Expand

function TheFunc() as string()
    TheFunc(1) = "hi"
    TheFunc(2) = "low"
end function


sub DoTheWork()
    Dim Arr() as string 
        Arr()=TheFunc
end sub

Would that work?

Don't know.

Go stick it in an empty project and call it, and fix it accordingly.

Function TheFunc() As String()
Dim Arry(1) As String
    Arry(0) = "Low"
    Arry(1) = "High"
    TheFunc = Arry
End Function


Sub DoTheWork()
    MsgBox UBound(TheFunc)
End Sub
Its usually good pratice I think Not to use a function as a vareable...
The Above Code Works.

Why not just Dim Arry(0 to 1) As String?

[Hdx]

Um iono, laziy coding, But maby cuz I wanted him to be avle to delete the lines below that and do it for himself.. But ya, mostly cuz i wrote it without looking at what i was dooing 0.o

Yeah, I just publicly declared an array, & then I redim it when needed.

Mucho thanks again HDX!

Sounds costly, albeit it is Visual Basic.

True, I suggest that he simply has it a private Dim, jsut for that function so it dosent take up as much space, 0.o (MEM wise)
But ya it's vb, what cha gona do? And I cant learn C till Seinor year!!! and noone else but school is willing to teach>.<

It wouldn't be more work/space required to keep re-declaring it EVERYTIME I need it? ( about 5-6 times so far )

Maybe this variable should be static then

Function TheFunc() As String()
    Static Arry(0 To 1) As String
    Arry(0) = "Low"
    Arry(1) = "High"
    TheFunc = Arry
End Function

Like that? Wouldn't that still be wasting time by stating whats in the variable?
