I want to create a collection of a type block

Public Type NameBlock
    Name as String
    FirstName as string
End Type


can i Create a collection of this type block, so i can use the .add method
and .remove method?
like;

Dim MyNameCol as new Collection of NameBlock


or should i just create an array, like

Dim MyNameVar() as NameBlock



any suggestion?

Thanks again.

Show quote Hide quote If you want to use UDTs, you're basically limited to an array. You may want
to go through a few of these for some ideas.

Basically, if you convert that UDT to a class module, you can use a
collection or an array or.... anything you want. Classes don't suffer from
the same restrictions as UDTs do... plus, they're far more flexible.

Converting a User Defined Type to a Class Module

<code snipped>
A UDT cannot be coerced into a Variant at runtime and as such cannot be stored in a collection.  You may be able to make it work by
declaring the UDT in a typelib, otherwise just use an array or write your own collection object for that specific UDT.
Hope this helps,

I suggest using classes instead of types.
