所以我想知道,如何从VBA中的函数,子或类型返回多个值? 我有这个主要的子应该从几个函数收集数据,但一个函数只能返回它看起来的一个值。那么如何将多个返回给子?

您可能希望重新考虑应用程序的结构,如果您真的想要一种方法来返回多个值。

要么分开,要么不同的方法返回不同的值,或者找出逻辑分组并构建一个对象来保存可以返回的数据。

' this is the VB6/VBA equivalent of a struct
' data, no methods
Private Type settings
    root As String
    path As String
    name_first As String
    name_last As String
    overwrite_prompt As Boolean
End Type


Public Sub Main()

    Dim mySettings As settings
    mySettings = getSettings()


End Sub

' if you want this to be public, you're better off with a class instead of a User-Defined-Type (UDT)
Private Function getSettings() As settings

    Dim sets As settings

    With sets ' retrieve values here
        .root = "foo"
        .path = "bar"
        .name_first = "Don"
        .name_last = "Knuth"
        .overwrite_prompt = False
    End With

    ' return a single struct, vb6/vba-style
    getSettings = sets

End Function

您可以尝试返回VBA集合。

只要您处理配对值,例如“Version = 1.31”,您就可以将标识符存储为键(“Version”),将实际值(1.31)存储为项目本身。

Dim c As New Collection
Dim item as Variant
Dim key as String
key = "Version"
item = 1.31
c.Add item, key
'Then return c

之后访问这些值很简单:

c.Item("Version") 'Returns 1.31
or
c("Version") '.Item is the default member

有意义吗?

想法:

  1. 使用传递参考(ByRef)
  2. 构建用户定义类型以保存要返回的内容,然后返回。
  3. 与2类似 - 构建一个类来表示返回的信息,并返回该类的对象......

您还可以使用变量数组作为返回结果来返回任意值序列:

Function f(i As Integer, s As String) As Variant()
    f = Array(i + 1, "ate my " + s, Array(1#, 2#, 3#))
End Function

Sub test()
    result = f(2, "hat")
    i1 = result(0)
    s1 = result(1)
    a1 = result(2)
End Sub

丑陋且容易出错,因为你的调用者需要知道返回什么才能使用结果,但偶尔会有用。

一个函数返回一个值,但它可以"输出"任意数量的价值观。示例代码:

Function Test (ByVal Input1 As Integer, ByVal Input2 As Integer, _
ByRef Output1 As Integer, ByRef Output2 As Integer) As Integer

  Output1 = Input1 + Input2
  Output2 = Input1 - Input2
  Test = Output1 + Output2

End Function

Sub Test2()

  Dim Ret As Integer, Input1 As Integer, Input2 As Integer, _
  Output1 As integer, Output2 As Integer
  Input1 = 1
  Input2 = 2
  Ret = Test(Input1, Input2, Output1, Output2)
  Sheet1.Range("A1") = Ret     ' 2
  Sheet1.Range("A2") = Output1 ' 3
  Sheet1.Range("A3") = Output2 '-1

End Sub

不优雅,但如果您不重复使用您的方法,您还可以使用全局变量,这些变量由代码开头的Public语句定义,在Subs之前。 但是,您必须谨慎,一旦您更改了公共值,它将在您的代码中保存在所有子和函数中。

您可以将2个或更多值返回给VBA中的函数或任何其他可视化基础的东西,但您需要使用名为Byref的指针方法。请参阅下面的示例。我将创建一个函数来添加和减去2个值,例如5,6

sub Macro1
    ' now you call the function this way
    dim o1 as integer, o2 as integer
    AddSubtract 5, 6, o1, o2
    msgbox o2
    msgbox o1
end sub


function AddSubtract(a as integer, b as integer, ByRef sum as integer, ByRef dif as integer)
    sum = a + b
    dif = b - 1
end function

我总是通过总是返回ArrayList来从函数返回多个结果。使用ArrayList我只能返回一个由多个值组成的项目,在StringsIntegers之间混合。

在我的主要子组中返回ArrayList之后,我只使用ArrayList.Item(i).ToString,其中i是我想要从ArrayList <返回的值的索引/ p>

一个例子:

 Public Function Set_Database_Path()
        Dim Result As ArrayList = New ArrayList
        Dim fd As OpenFileDialog = New OpenFileDialog()


        fd.Title = "Open File Dialog"
        fd.InitialDirectory = "C:\"
        fd.RestoreDirectory = True
        fd.Filter = "All files (*.*)|*.*|All files (*.*)|*.*"
        fd.FilterIndex = 2
        fd.Multiselect = False


        If fd.ShowDialog() = DialogResult.OK Then

            Dim Database_Location = Path.GetFullPath(fd.FileName)

            Dim Database_Connection_Var = "Provider=Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0;Data Source=""" & Database_Location & """"

            Result.Add(Database_Connection_Var)
            Result.Add(Database_Location)

            Return (Result)

        Else

            Return (Nothing)

        End If
    End Function

然后像这样调用函数:

Private Sub Main_Load()
  Dim PathArray As ArrayList

            PathArray = Set_Database_Path()
            My.Settings.Database_Connection_String = PathArray.Item(0).ToString
            My.Settings.FilePath = PathArray.Item(1).ToString
            My.Settings.Save()
End Sub

您可以将所需的所有数据从文件连接到单个字符串,并在Excel工作表中将文本分隔为列。 这是我为同样的问题做的一个例子,享受:

Sub CP()
Dim ToolFile As String

Cells(3, 2).Select

For i = 0 To 5
    r = ActiveCell.Row
    ToolFile = Cells(r, 7).Value
    On Error Resume Next
    ActiveCell.Value = CP_getdatta(ToolFile)

    'seperate data by "-"
    Selection.TextToColumns Destination:=Range("C3"), DataType:=xlDelimited, _
        TextQualifier:=xlDoubleQuote, ConsecutiveDelimiter:=False, Tab:=True, _
        Semicolon:=False, Comma:=False, Space:=False, Other:=True, OtherChar _
        :="-", FieldInfo:=Array(Array(1, 1), Array(2, 1)), TrailingMinusNumbers:=True

Cells(r + 1, 2).Select
Next


End Sub

Function CP_getdatta(ToolFile As String) As String
    Workbooks.Open Filename:=ToolFile, UpdateLinks:=False, ReadOnly:=True

    Range("A56000").Select
    Selection.End(xlUp).Select
    x = CStr(ActiveCell.Value)
    ActiveCell.Offset(0, 20).Select
    Selection.End(xlToLeft).Select
    While IsNumeric(ActiveCell.Value) = False
        ActiveCell.Offset(0, -1).Select
    Wend
    ' combine data to 1 string
    CP_getdatta = CStr(x & "-" & ActiveCell.Value)
    ActiveWindow.Close False

End Function
