As you saw from the air code, feeding the values into a paramarray "gets
them into an array" and you are done. If that is all you are after you
could literally just have a function with a ParamArray for the input and
passes back that same array as the function exits.

Subject: Re: [AccessD] Loading checkbox values into an array
Thanks John, I think this points me in the right direction. I became
intrigued by Kostas requirement last week to compute workdays between dates.
I developed a form and code to do this but now I am refining the code.
Currently I have a form with all the US holidays listed. The user checks
which ones he wants included as holidays in the calculation. The code
determines which day holidays fall on then I have code like this:
Function Holiday(datDateIn As Date) As Boolean 'Determine if date is a
holiday (ie non workday) 'the dates for New years, memorial day, etc for the
selected year were set in a different function Holiday = False Select Case
datDateIn Case NewYears
If Forms!frmWorkdays_Between_Dates.chkNewYears = True Then Holiday =
True Case Memorial_Day
If Forms!frmWorkdays_Between_Dates.chkMemorial = True Then Holiday =
True Case July4th
If Forms!frmWorkdays_Between_Dates.chkJuly4th = True Then Holiday = True
Against which I test every date in a selected range to determine if it is a
holiday and if the user wants it included in the calculation. This seems
very clunky and so I figured an array could tighten the code.
Actually, I think I can get this whole program into a class using With
Events but it needs some more work first. The array I need should have
true/false (ie true if the user wants the holiday included) and the name of
the holiday (I may include this in the tag property of the control).
I can use the array to replace the if stmts in the code above.
Thanks,
Jim Hale

Give us a little more info. Why do you need to load into an array? An
array of what?
(air code)
function LoadArray (ParamArray varCtls() as variant)
dim ctl as control
dim Arr(13) as variant
dim intIndex as integer
for each ctl in varCtls
arr(intIndex) = ctl.value
intindex+=1
next ctl
LoadArray = Arr
end function
?LoadArray(Chk1, Chk2, Chk3 etc etc)(0)
returns an array and displays the 0th element
Something like that?
You really should do some error checking to see how many objects varCtls
contains in case you pass in 14 controls (you'd get a runtime error).

OK, this should be easy burt I guess its late and I can't recall how to
do
it.
I have 13 checkboxes on a form. I need to load their values (true,
false) into an array. Anyone want to jog my memory? TIA Jim Hale
