       What JJ said. VBS doesn't do datatypes. You have   
   two choices: Convert each array element to variant   
   when assigning it, or don't use an array. I typically   
   use a character-delimited string that can be converted   
   to array easily by the caller:   
      
   Dim c1   
   c1 = Chr(1)   
      
   s = "one" & c1 & "2" & c1 & "three"   
   a = Split(s, c1)   
      
   For i = 0 to 2   
      MsgBox a(i)   
   next   
      
      The caller can convert the string to a variant array in one   
   simple line. You don't have to convert the string to variant   
   until the final act of your function: Get3Numbers = CVar(s)   
      
     If you want to return an array then you have to convert each   
   array member individually.
