Answer 1

Public Function _
CreateTextArrayFromSourceTexts(ParamArray SourceTexts() As Variant) As String()

    ReDim TargetTextArray(0 To UBound(SourceTexts)) As String
    
    For SourceTextsCellNumber = 0 To UBound(SourceTexts)
        TargetTextArray(SourceTextsCellNumber) = SourceTexts(SourceTextsCellNumber)
    Next SourceTextsCellNumber

    CreateTextArrayFromSourceTexts = TargetTextArray
End Function

Example:

Dim TT() As String
TT = CreateTextArrayFromSourceTexts("hi", "bye", "hi", "bcd", "bYe")

Result:

TT(0)="hi"
TT(1)="bye"
TT(2)="hi"
TT(3)="bcd"
TT(4)="bYe"

Enjoy!

Edit: I removed the duplicatedtexts deleting feature and made the code smaller and easier to use.
