Answer 1

Your item should contain a 2-D array as expected. If you stick a breakpoint in your code and look at the little "Locals" window in the VBA editor, you should see that. Your calls to LBound and UBound are getting the bounds in the first dimension. If you call Lbound(item,2) and UBound(item,2), you should get 1 and 5 as you expect.

EDIT: That is, once you've made the assignment, item would look like something you could have declared as such:

Dim item(1 to 1, 1 to 5)

One of the banes of VBA programming is that arrays can have arbitrary lower bounds. So all of your code needs to be aware of that.
