How can I convert a range to a string (VBA)?

Question

What is the best way to convert a range of cells to a string? I have a function that only takes a string as input so I need to convert the range to a string, while retaining

Answer 1

To make a comma separated list of cell values in a range:

Function RangeToString(ByVal myRange as Range) as String
    RangeToString = ""
    If Not myRange Is Nothing Then
        Dim myCell as Range
        For Each myCell in myRange
            RangeToString = RangeToString & "," & myCell.Value
        Next myCell
        'Remove extra comma
        RangeToString = Right(RangeToString, Len(RangeToString) - 1)
    End If
End Function

You could add extra functionality like inserting a semicolon instead of a comma if the row number increases.

To use this function:

Sub AnySubNameHere()
    Dim rng As Range
    Set rng = ActiveSheet.Range("A3:A10")

    Dim myString as String
    myString = RangeToString(rng)
End Sub
