The code gives an error before pasting if the array is empty. What could be the best solution to bypass if there is not data store in the array?

Nary is out of subscription.

'
VBA Code:
Find and add matched cases into another array
            ReDim Nary(1 To UBound(Ary), 1 To c)
            For r = 1 To UBound(Ary)
                If InStr(1, Trim(LCase(Ary(r, SourceCol))), CountryKey, vbTextCompare) > 0 Then
                    nr = nr + 1
                        For c = 1 To UBound(Ary, 2)
                            Nary(nr, c) = Ary(r, c)
                        Next c
                End If
            Next r

                
'Paste data from the array to Destination Sheet
            With OpenDestination
                        
                 With .Sheets(DestinationSheet)
                   
                   '.Range("A2").Resize(nr, UBound(Nary, 2))
                         With .Range("A" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Offset(1).Resize(nr, UBound(Nary, 2))
                             .NumberFormat = "@"    'Text format
                             .Value = Nary
                             .NumberFormat = "General"
                         End With
 

Excel Facts

What did Pito Salas invent?
Pito Salas, working for Lotus, popularized what would become to be pivot tables. It was released as Lotus Improv in 1989.
I'd guess the error is due to nr being 0, not the array size - but it would have helped if you'd posted the code before this part. Test for that.

The code below sums the numbers in 2nd dimension of Nary. If you have numbers in the first dimension switch 2 to 1.
VBA Code:
  If Application.Sum(Application.Index(Nary, 0, 2)) > 0 Then
    With .Range("A" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Offset(1).Resize(nr, UBound(Nary, 2))
      .NumberFormat = "@"    'Text format
      .Value = Nary
      .NumberFormat = "General"
    End With
  End If

If I change nr=1, then it does not give me an error if the array is empty. However, a blank row is been added on top of the data set while pasting where the array is not empty.


VBA Code:
Sub CountryCuts()


Dim SourceFilePath As String, CountryKey As String, SourceSheet As String, SourceCol As String, SearchType As String, CountryName As String, DestinationFilePath As String, DestinationSheet As String, SaveAs_Name As String, SaveAs_Path As String
Dim OpenSource As Workbook, OpenDestination As Workbook
Dim cl As Range
Dim Dic As Object
Dim StartTime As Double
Dim MinutesElapsed As String
Dim Ary As Variant, Nary As Variant
Dim r As Long, c As Long, nr As Long, lastRow As Long
Dim tb1 As ListObject




With Application
   .ScreenUpdating = False
   .DisplayAlerts = False
   .EnableEvents = False
End With

StartTime = Timer


lastRow = ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Dashboard").Range("E" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).row
SourceFilePath = ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Dashboard").Range("F3")



'Open Source/Input File
    Set OpenSource = Workbooks.Open(SourceFilePath)

With ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Dashboard")
   
   
'Loop through each Country key in Dashboard
For i = 12 To lastRow
            
        
'Declare value for placeholder
            CountryKey = ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Dashboard").Cells(i, 5).Value
            SourceSheet = ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Dashboard").Cells(i, 6).Value

Are you sure we are not overcomplicating this ?
Following on from @RoryA's comment in Post#2, why not go back to your original code (which has nr starting at 0 and no Application.Sum) and just test for nr is 0.

Rich (BB code):
            With OpenDestination
                        
                 With .Sheets(DestinationSheet)
                   If nr > 0 Then
                   '.Range("A2").Resize(nr, UBound(Nary, 2))
                         With .Range("A" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Offset(1).Resize(nr, UBound(Nary, 2))
                             .NumberFormat = "@"    'Text format
                             .Value = Nary
                             .NumberFormat = "General"
                         End With
                    End If


You may also want to close without the Refresh and without Saving, since you didn't write to that Destination workbook.
