Here is the question: "Suppose your program fills a large two-dimensional array called results with values, and you would like it to dump these values into an Excel range. For example, if results is m by n, you would like the program to dump the values into a range with m rows and n columns. One way is to use two nested loops to dump the data one element at a time into the appropriate cell."
What I've got so far:
Dim MyArray(m, n) As Long
Dim X as Long
Dim Y as Long
For X = 1 To m
For Y = 1 To n
MyArray(X, Y) = Cells(X, Y).Value
Next Y
Next X
I really need some help figuring this out I'm totally lost
This fills the array with m rows and n columns and then transfers it all into a range starting in cell A1
of the ActiveSheet
:
Sub FillRangeFromArray()
Dim m As Long
Dim n As Long
Dim x As Long
Dim y As Long
Dim MyArray() As String
'set the row and column dimensions
m = 100
n = 5
'redimension the array now that you have m and n
ReDim MyArray(1 To m, 1 To n)
'whenever possible lbound and ubound (first to last element)
'to loop through arrays, where
'MyArray,1 is the first (row) element and MyArray,2
'is the second (column) element
For x = LBound(MyArray, 1) To UBound(MyArray, 1)
For y = LBound(MyArray, 2) To UBound(MyArray, 2)
MyArray(x, y) = x & "-" & y
Next y
Next x
'fill the range in one fell swoop
'Resize creates a range resized to
'm rows and n columns
ActiveSheet.Range("A1").Resize(m, n).Value = MyArray
End Sub
Assuming you fill your data somewhere else before that, you can just use
Cells(X, Y).Value=MyArray(X, Y)
