VBA ONLY: Alter Array Elements

[jc0r]

Hi all

I have a script that generates an array in VBA. The array is multidimensional, always 10 columns wide but is dynamic with the amount of rows. In the below example it is currently getting elements for 3 rows

What i would like to be able to do is run a script which will alter the elements in the array index that has the highest value in column 9. So in the above example MyVar(3) has the highest value in column 9 (0.17628...).

From there i would like a script to do, for example:

MyArr(3,2) = MyArr(3,2) x 2
MyArr(3,3) = MyArr(3,3) +1
etc.

Hope this make sense,

Many thanks in advance

This is untested (because I did not feel like typing in all the data in your posted picture into a worksheet), but I think it should work. I have also provided the Dim statement for declaring the variables I used in case you declare all of your variables (which you should always do).

Dim R As Long, Indx As Long, Max As Double

For R = 1 To UBound(MyArray)
  If MyArray(R, 9) > Max Then Indx = R
Next
MyArray(Indx, 2) = 2 * MyArray(Indx, 2)
MyArray(Indx, 3) = 1 + MyArray(Indx, 3)

Thats great, thankyou Rick. I don't suppose you could suggest how i would get to the 2nd, 3rd next highest once conditions are met could you please?
