Hello,
I'm trying to make my first array and hitting a snag. I'm making a macro that automatically runs upon opening any Excel file. I'm having a runtime error of 438, Object doesn't support this property or method. I feel it's from incorrectly defining my active sheet. How would I properly do this?
Thanks!

Code:
Dim StrArr(89) As String, i As Integer
i = 3 ' change to start value
Do While ThisWorkbook.ActiveSheet.Cell(i, 1).Value <> ""
 StrArr(i - 3) = ThisWorkbook.ActiveSheet.Cells(i, 1).Value
 i = i + 1
Loop
MsgBox StrArr(0)MsgBox StrArr(1)MsgBox StrArr(2)MsgBox StrArr(89)

Whats the difference between CONCAT and CONCATENATE?
The newer CONCAT function can reference a range of cells. =CONCATENATE(A1,A2,A3,A4,A5) becomes =CONCAT(A1:A5)
Welcome to the forum.

It should be Cells not Cell in this line:

Rich (BB code):
Do While ThisWorkbook.ActiveSheet.Cell(i, 1).Value <> ""
