Also posted on stackoverflow with same subject line.
I have a function that imports a sheet to the global sheet and then loops through the columns and rows to create an array.
Code
So now that I know I can get the columns into an array, I need to store each array individually.
For example:
Main array = myArray(i)
Call importArray() to get array
Column count = 2
Column names = Name, Surname
Store array into array variable with name as column name
Populate myArray() with stored arrays
myArray(Name(), Surname())
The reason I want to do this is because I have a function that will need to reference these arrays to look for a value in the array then do some logic. While I know that I can just create arrays one by one, the problem is that I might have 20 arrays to use, in which case the code will become really bulky.
Perhaps there is a better way to do what I am thinking of doing, but otherwise, help on this would be really appreciated.

Public Function importArray()
DataTable.ImportSheet "location","Lists", "Global"
rowCount = DataTable.GetSheet(dtGlobalSheet).GetRowCount -1
columnCount = DataTable.GetSheet(dtGlobalSheet).GetParameterCount
ReDim myArray(-1)
For x = 1 to columnCount Step 1
For i = 0 to rowCount Step 1
ReDim Preserve myArray(UBound(myArray) + 1)
myArray(i) = Datatable.Value(x, dtGlobalSheet)
Datatable.SetNextRow
Next
MsgBox Join(myArray, vbNewLine)
Next
End Function
