Declare and Initialize String Array in VBA

Question

This should work according to another stack overflow post but its not:

Dim arrWsNames As String() = {\"Value1\", \"Value2\"}

Can anyone let

Answer 1

In the specific case of a String array you could initialize the array using the Split Function as it returns a String array rather than a Variant array:

Dim arrWsNames() As String
arrWsNames = Split("Value1,Value2,Value3", ",")

This allows you to avoid using the Variant data type and preserve the desired type for arrWsNames.
