Hi Nihal,
Variant is not working as array here. Moreover, it's logically incorrect to assign value of a range with multiple cells to a single variable. Since A is variant, it's not throwing any error at compile time but when you tried watching the value of A, it's not showing it. The only case when it will not throw any error logically and in compile time is when range(cells(firstrow,dummycolmn),cells(lastrow,dummycolmn)) will refer to a single cell instead of multiple cells. ------------------------------ Excel VBA Interview Questions<http://www.excelitems.com/2010/12/excel-vba-interview-questions.html> Collection of Excel VBA Macros<http://www.excelitems.com/2008/09/vba-macro-codes-examples-collection.html> VLOOKUP<http://www.excelitems.com/2009/03/how-to-use-vlookup-function.html> OFFSET<http://www.excelitems.com/2011/01/use-offset-function-dynamic-range.html#more> ARRAY formulas<http://www.excelitems.com/2010/06/array-or-cse-formulas-and-functions-in.html> ------------------------------ Excel 2003 Style Menu in Excel 2007<http://www.excelitems.com/2010/12/excel-2003-style-menu-in-excel-20072010.html> Custom Number Format<http://www.excelitems.com/2011/01/custom-cell-formatting-number-date-text.html> SUMIFS<http://www.excelitems.com/2009/09/difference-between-sumif-and-sumifs.html> CONTACT a TRAINER<http://www.excelitems.com/2009/03/callcontact-trainer-for-excelvbavsto.html> <http://www.excelitems.com/2010/12/excel-2003-style-menu-in-excel-20072010.html> ------------------------------ Thanks & Regards ------------------------------ Ashish Jain (Microsoft Certified Application Specialist) (Microsoft Certified Professional) http://www.excelitems.com http://www.openexcel.com Facebook <http://www.facebook.com/eXceLiTems> Twitter<http://www.twitter.com/eXceLiTems> LinkedIn <http://in.linkedin.com/in/ashishjain08> LiveJournal<http://livejournal.excelitems.com/> Digg <http://digg.com/excelitems> Delicious<http://www.delicious.com/save?new=1&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.excelitems.com%2F&title=MS%20Excel%20VBA%20%26%20VSTO%20Macros%2C%20Functions%2C%20Tutorials%20%26%20Downloads&type=BOOKMARK&jump=http://www.delicious.com%2Fmountint&key=Nyn3Hc9oMaEzmGO_Fg_jkAwe1hI-©user=mountint&via=mountint©tags=eXceLitems+Office+Microsoft+Functions+Formulas+VBA+VSTO+Excel2010+Excel2007+excel2003+Excel+Bookmarks_Menu+eXceLiTems.com> Subscribe by Email<http://feedburner.google.com/fb/a/mailverify?uri=excelitems> -- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Some important links for excel users: 1.
