Good day, 'TLDR below, this is just for context
This question does not necessarily need to be answered as long as there is a solution to my problem one way or another.
-----------------Background of what I'm attempting to accomplish.-------------------------------
I'm building a usage model where I take several hundred jobs (400-600), compare their active dates Vs the dates throughout the year, and multiply the amount of equipment they use (~2600 unique pcs) vs 1 of 6 percent charts.
I already built this IN an excel formula which works pretty well... Issue is I had to break up each month to a single spreadsheet, the year file into another, and import the values torun my capital expense projections//usage shortages. Each month sheet(~30-40mb) takes my computer 2 minutes to open and 2 minutes to save/close, so whenever I want to make an adjustment it takes about 30+minutes and a re-import. See formula below(or skip not that important)(it is just a nightmare that took me like a week to get right).

=IFERROR(ROUNDUP(IF(OR([@Category]="GRD",[@Category]="STR"),IF(OR(VLOOKUP(G$1 & "*",AllJobs,5,0)>Apr_1,VLOOKUP(G$1 & "*",AllJobs,9,0)<Apr_1),0,IF(AND(VLOOKUP(G$1 & "*",AllJobs,6,0)<=Apr_1,VLOOKUP(G$1 & "*",AllJobs,8,0)>Apr_1),AprProjection!G3,IF(AND(VLOOKUP(G$1 & "*",AllJobs,5,0)<=Apr_1,VLOOKUP(G$1 & "*",AllJobs,6,0)>=Apr_1),AprProjection!G3*@INDEX(Picket_Steps[[1]:[18]],ROUNDUP((Apr_1-VLOOKUP(G$1 & "*",AllJobs,5,0))/7,0),VLOOKUP(G$1 & "*",AllJobs,24,0)),AprProjection!G3*@INDEX(Picket_Steps_Strike[[1]:[18]],ROUNDUP((Apr_1-VLOOKUP(G$1 & "*",AllJobs,8,0))/7,0),VLOOKUP(G$1 & "*",AllJobs,26,0))))),IF([@Category]="ACC",IF(OR(VLOOKUP(G$1 & "*",AllJobs,5,0)>Apr_1,VLOOKUP(G$1 & "*",AllJobs,9,0)<Apr_1),0,IF(AND(VLOOKUP(G$1 & "*",AllJobs,6,0)<=Apr_1,VLOOKUP(G$1 & "*",AllJobs,8,0)>Apr_1),AprProjection!G3,IF(AND(VLOOKUP(G$1 & "*",AllJobs,5,0)<=Apr_1,VLOOKUP(G$1 & "*",AllJobs,6,0)>=Apr_1),AprProjection!G3*@INDEX(Special_Items[[1]:[18]],ROUNDUP((Apr_1-VLOOKUP(G$1 & "*",AllJobs,5,0))/7,0),VLOOKUP(G$1 & "*",AllJobs,24,0)),AprProjection!G3*@INDEX(Special_Items_Strike[[1]:[18]],ROUNDUP((Apr_1-VLOOKUP(G$1 & "*",AllJobs,8,0))/7,0),VLOOKUP(G$1 & "*",AllJobs,26,0))))),IF(OR(VLOOKUP(G$1 & "*",AllJobs,5,0)>Apr_1,VLOOKUP(G$1 & "*",AllJobs,9,0)<Apr_1),0,IF(AND(VLOOKUP(G$1 & "*",AllJobs,6,0)<=Apr_1,VLOOKUP(G$1 & "*",AllJobs,8,0)>Apr_1),AprProjection!G3,IF(AND(VLOOKUP(G$1 & "*",AllJobs,5,0)<=Apr_1,VLOOKUP(G$1 & "*",AllJobs,6,0)>=Apr_1),AprProjection!G3*@INDEX(Understructure[[1]:[18]],ROUNDUP((Apr_1-VLOOKUP(G$1 & "*",AllJobs,5,0))/7,0),VLOOKUP(G$1 & "*",AllJobs,24,0)),AprProjection!G3*@INDEX(Understructure_Strike[[1]:[18]],ROUNDUP((Apr_1-VLOOKUP(G$1 & "*",AllJobs,8,0))/7,0),VLOOKUP(G$1 & "*",AllJobs,26,0))))))),0),AprProjection!G3)

So I would like to combine everything into 1 sheet and eliminate 90% of my formulas with a vba code which I can run on demand... I expect it to be pretty beefy and still take a few minutes to compile but I need to make it so i can make all the changes I need to then run the code on demand...(I'm also trying to be efficient considering the code will have to run something like 88mil? loops? maybe my math is bad, depends on how the output if accomplished)

My VBA is passable sometimes lol please don't judge since I'm working on framing work, I believe I know where I want to go so I'm working on each part individually until I get them working, once they work I just push them to the side until the next is done and so forth until I get everything done then I will combine them all and break it differently... I also use msg boxes to step through the code to see where it breaks...

What I'm stuck on currently is changing the value of an array. I have the array, I've set the value of the array to be that of the "Take-Off" (see below the sheet)(just a small sample)

---------The array is currently set up to be 1d(=solojob) and it would equal the entirety of COL L (in this case "American C")----------

For jobnum = 1 To JobNumbers
Set SoloJob = Sheets("Event_Page").Range("b2:ad2").Offset(jobnum, 0)
'if there is no t/o for the job in question it just skips to next job
If SoloJob(29) = 0 Then

SoloTO = Sheets("Total_TOs").Range("h3:h2619").Offset(0, SoloJob(29)).Value

-----Now I can output this information-----------

'Sheets(SheetsForTables(0)).Range("g2:g2619").Offset(0, SoloJob(29)) = SoloTO() 'works just need to find a way to multiply

-------However I need to adjust the data under variable circumstance so I have 6 2d arrays I need to reference to multiply by the dependent on the the date (below is the for if loops in you care for a reference guide all that is there is the framework. Not only am I referencing dates but if the Category col (above) is "UND" I need to multiply by "x", if its "STR" I need to multiply by "y", and if its "ACC" I need to multiply by "z"--------

'converts date to double for math later changes for each job

TL;DR
I need to either multiply a 1d array with another 1d array
Array1 (1,3,5,4,3,............) * Array2(x,y,x,z,y,.............)
= Array3(1x,3y,5x,4z,3y,......) OR display in COL L (1x,3y,5x,4z,3y........)
OR populate a 2d array at several different times
Array
[ Multiple, T/O, Adjusted
? , 1 , ?
? , 3 , ?
? , 5 , ?
? , 4 , ?
? , 3 , ?]
'Do some stuff in between not really important but there is a time difference between when i can load in this information since I cant get it until this point
[ Multiple, T/O, Adjusted
x , 1 , ?
y , 3 , ?
x , 5 , ?
z , 4 , ?
y , 3 , ?]
'do some other stuff(same as before) (OR)(option 1)
[ Multiple, T/O, Adjusted
x , 1 , 1x
y , 3 , 3y
x , 5 , 5x
z , 4 , 4z
y , 3 , 3y]
Display Array(adjusted)="1x,3y,5x,4z,3y........"
OR(option 2)
Display array(multiple) * array(T/O) = "1x,3y,5x,4z,3y........"

*Notes, this does not have to be dynamic, I know everytime my 2d array will be 2619 in length
*I always pasting this information into a col on the same x axis, the y axis is determined with an offset
*I'm looking for the most efficient possible way to do it b/c of the quantity of lines * the quantity of times it will cycle through
*Once the data has been adjusted for the sheet it is no longer needed for other calculations

I'm sorry this was a mile long post, I hope you can garner enough information about what I'm doing//what I need without my code making your eyes bleed haha
I'm willing to discuss on skype or share my file if its too ambiguous what I'm attempting to accomplish through this post.
Thanks
 

Excel Facts

Why does 9 mean SUM in SUBTOTAL?
It is because Sum is the 9th alphabetically in Average, Count, CountA, Max, Min, Product, StDev.S, StDev.P, Sum, VAR.S, VAR.P.
Welcome to the Forum!

I think the gist of your post is Q: Can I multiply two arrays?

A: Yes.

Here is a trivial example. But no reason you can't build one or both input arrays element by element.

VBA arrays are fast. I don't know where you get your number of 88 million, but even if you do need to loop that many times, it won't take long at all.

        NoRows = .Cells(Rows.Count - .Row + 1, .Column).End(xlUp).Row - .Row + 1
        ReDim vOut(1 To NoRows, 1 To 1)
        vIn1 = .Resize(NoRows).Value
        vIn2 = .Offset(, 1).Resize(NoRows).Value
        For i = 1 To NoRows

Stephen, Thanks for your quick reply, I've been working around with this and changed your code up a bit to fit my variable and my particular need. OFC since I don't know what I'm doing I now have an error.
I've stepped through the code and I've managed to Build/populate 2 arrays with the correct values. when I go to multiply them together and fill in the 3rd array I get runtime error subscript out of range.. looking at my local variables before the break they are all the same type/size with Vout being EMPTY. Posting my code again somewhat more refined..... some of the 'notes are for me



VBA Code:
        'start to load in the t/o to tables where it pertains
        For week = 43831 To 44202 'datevale is 1/1/20-1/6/21' use a cell date in key sheet to allow for adjustment 'runs projection through dates we have
        'check that the current "week" is within the job timeline
            If week >= StartBDateToDbl And week <= EndSDateToDbl Then
                If week > EndBDateToDbl And week < StartSDateToDbl Then

You have declared vOut as starting from row 1.

When Variants CatArray and SoloTO are set equal to SomeRange.Value, they will also start from row 1 (regardless of whether you're using Option Base 0 or Option Base 1).

So you'll need to change:
For i = 1 To NoRows (It's the zero causing the problem)

VBA Code:
'You can keep these three lines outside the loop!
ReDim vout(1 To NoRows, 1 To 1)
CatArray = .Resize(NoRows).Value
SoloTO = .Offset(, 1).Resize(NoRows).Value

For i = 0 To NoRows
    vout(i, 1) = CatArray(i, 1) * SoloTO(i, 1)
Next i

Aright,
I get to this line of code preceding the "redim vout(1 to norows, 1 to 1)
I have in information I want.
Soloto has information I want (100, 50,25,ETC)
CatArray has the information I want (.5,.25.4,ETC)
However when it does
Catarray = .resize(norows).value
CatArray values change to exactly what SoloTO is (100, 50,25,ETC)
so when I multiply the 2 I get
10000, 2500, 625
Instead of
50,13.5,10
am I missing something?

                            Norows = .Cells(Rows.Count - .Row + 1, .Column).End(xlUp).Row - .Row + 1 ' sets norows to be the length of the data in the b col)

                                If .Cells(i).Offset(0, -5) = "GRD" Or .Cells(i).Offset(0, -5) = "STR" Then 'if the category is steps or guardrail

It looks like you've kept bits of my code that you don't need. And you've set CatArray and SoloTO to the same values:
VBA Code:
CatArray = .Resize(Norows).Value
SoloTO = .Resize(Norows).Value

I can see you have looped to populate each element of CatArray (but wonder whether it should have been populated from 1 to Norows, rather than from 0?)

Where is SoloTo populated? Is it the same size as CatArray?

I've populated Soloto Earlier in the loop, however I've kept your code
redim vout(1 to norows, 1 to 1)
CatArray = .Resize(Norows).Value
SoloTO = .Resize(Norows).Value
because if I do not I get a error 9 out of range...
I'm assuming thats because that is changing the array to use the Varient making it 2d rather than just 1d
But when I tried to make it something like

for i = 1 to norows
vout(i) = catarray(i)*soloto(i)
next i
I also get a error 9 out of range

VBA Code:
For jobnum = 1 To 3 'JobNumbers '~490+/- 'slimmed down for testing purposes
        Set SoloJob = Sheets("Event_Page").Range("b2:ad2").Offset(jobnum, 0)
        'if there is no t/o for the job in question it just skips to next job
        If SoloJob(29) = 0 Then
            GoTo Nextjobnum
        End If
        'populates t/o of job into an array
        SoloTO = Sheets("Total_TOs").Range("g3:g2619").Offset(0, SoloJob(29)) '.Value
        'converts date to double for math later changes for each job
        StartBDate = SoloJob(5)
        EndBDate = SoloJob(6)
        StartSDate = SoloJob(8)
        EndSDate = SoloJob(9)

        'start to load in the t/o to tables where it pertains

To multiply two arrays, they will need to be the same size. If you have
VBA Code:
Dim MyVariant as Variant

MyVariant = Range("A1:A5").Value

then MyVariant will be a 2D array with size 5x1, or to be more precise (1 to 5, 1 to 1).

We can convert to 1D arrays, by using Transpose:
Code:
MyVariant = Application.Transpose(Range("A1:A5").Value)

I think you are looking for something along these lines:

Code:
Dim vOut As Variant
'other declarations

With Worksheets("total_tos").Range("G3")
    NoRows = .Cells(Rows.Count - .Row + 1).End(xlUp).Row - .Row + 1    'length of data in col G
    SoloTo = Application.Transpose(.Resize(NoRows).Offset(0, SoloJob(29)).Value)
End With
   
'Populate CatArray with same dimensions (1 to NoRows)
' ....

ReDim vOut(1 To NoRows)
For i = 1 To NoRows
    vOut(i) = SoloTo(i) * CatArray(i)
Next i

'Transpose again to get a column for output, change Z3 depending on where you want the output
Range("Z3").Resize(NoRows).Value = Application.Transpose(vOut)

There are still places for me to work on to insure its dynamic rather than static however this code has made a data adjustment process go from 2hrs to 2minutes.
