Naming an array using a variable

Question

Is it possible to name an array variable using a different variable? For example, if I define variable \"i\" as an integer with a value equal to the number of columns I\'ve use

Answer 1

You can create an array of arrays (though your question is a little unclear..)

Sub MyArrays()

Dim arrays()
Dim arr
Dim i, j

    i = 5 'e.g.
    ReDim arrays(1 To i)

    For j = 1 To i
        arr = Array()
        ReDim arr(1 To j)
        arrays(j) = arr
    Next j
    'reference an array by its position in "arrays"
    Debug.Print UBound(arrays(3))

End Sub

Answer 2

Yes.

Dim i(5) As Integer

In VBA you can then access elements from i(0) to i(5).

Based on your edited question, the answer is no. You must explicitly define each variable in your code.

The other option would be to write code that writes your code - a form of code generation. Effectively that lets you write very long and complex code by repeating code "templates". But I don't think this would help in your case.
