SOLVED: Slice array to use index on larger than 65000

ceci:

I use the code hereunder to calculate max values as described in this post (vba max value of group of values). The code works great but once I have more than 65k lines I get a data type mismatch when trying to pase the array:


sht.Range(Cells(1, lColumn), Cells(last.Row, lColumn)).Value = Application.Index(groupsArray, , lColumn)

Could somebody help me to slice the array in chunks. I have tried to get it working myself but without any luck.


Sub FillGroupsMax()
Dim lColumn As Long
Dim sht As Worksheet
Dim groupsArray As Variant 'array with all group infomation
Dim groupsSeen As Variant 'array with group infomation already seen

Application.ScreenUpdating = False 'stop screen updating makes vba perform better

Set sht = ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("import")
Set last = sht.Range("A:A").Find("*", Cells(1, 1), searchdirection:=xlPrevious) 'last cell with value in column A
lColumn = sht.Cells(1, Columns.Count).End(xlToLeft).Column

groupsArray = sht.Range(Cells(1, 1), Cells(last.Row, lColumn))
'collect all the information on the Sheet into an array
'Improves performance by not visiting the sheet

For dRow = 2 To last.Row 'for each of the rows skipping header

'check if group as already been seen
If inArrayValue(Cells(dRow, 1).Value, groupsSeen) > 0 Then
'if it has been seen/calculated attribute value
'Cells(dRow, 4).Value = inArrayValue(Cells(dRow, 1).Value, groupsSeen)
groupsArray(dRow, lColumn) = inArrayValue(Cells(dRow, 1).Value, groupsSeen)
Else
'if it hasn't been seen then find max
'Cells(dRow, 4).Value = getMax(Cells(dRow, 1).Value, groupsArray)
groupsArray(dRow, lColumn) = getMax(Cells(dRow, 1).Value, groupsArray, lColumn)

'array construction from empty
If IsEmpty(groupsSeen) Then
ReDim groupsSeen(0)
'groupsSeen(0) = Array(Cells(dRow, 1).Value, Cells(dRow, 4).Value)
groupsSeen(0) = Array(groupsArray(dRow, 1), groupsArray(dRow, lColumn))
'attribute value to array
Else
ReDim Preserve groupsSeen(0 To UBound(groupsSeen) + 1)
groupsSeen(UBound(groupsSeen)) = Array(groupsArray(dRow, 1), groupsArray(dRow, lColumn))
End If
End If
Next

sht.Range(Cells(1, lColumn), Cells(last.Row, lColumn)).Value = Application.Index(groupsArray, , lColumn)
'reactivate Screen updating
Application.ScreenUpdating = True

End Sub

Function getMax(group As String, groupsArray As Variant, lColumn As Long) As Double

'for each in array
For n = 1 To UBound(groupsArray)
'if its the same group the Max we seen so far the record
If groupsArray(n, 1) = group And groupsArray(n, lColumn - 1) > maxSoFar Then
maxSoFar = groupsArray(n, lColumn - 1)
End If
Next

'set function value
getMax = maxSoFar
End Function

Function inArrayValue(group As String, groupsSeen As Variant) As Double

'set function value
inArrayValue = 0
'if array is empty then exit
If IsEmpty(groupsSeen) Then Exit Function

'for each in array
For n = 0 To UBound(groupsSeen)
'if we find the group
If groupsSeen(n)(0) = group Then
'set function value to the Max value already seen
inArrayValue = groupsSeen(n)(1)
'exit function earlier
Exit Function
End If
Next

End Function
