VBA: create array of class module
I am trying to create an array of my custom class, but it is giving me this error:
Runtime error '91':
Object variable or with unspecified block variable
Here is my code:
Sub DBM_Format()
Dim coreWS As Worksheet
Dim WS As Worksheet
Dim LastRow As Long
Dim RowRange As Long
Dim dataList() As clsDBM
Dim tmpdate As Date
Set coreWS = Sheets(ActiveSheet.Name)
'Set WS = Sheets.Add
LastRow = coreWS.Columns("A").Cells.Find("*", SearchOrder:=xlByRows, LookIn:=xlValues, SearchDirection:=xlPrevious).row
RowRange = LastRow - 1
Dim row As Integer
ReDim Preserve dataList(RowRange)
Dim i As Integer
Dim tmpData As clsDBM
For i = 0 To (RowRange - 1)
row = i + 2
tmpData.setDate = Format(Cells(row, 2), "MM/dd/yyyy hh:mm:ss")
tmpData.setBloodGlucose = Cells(row, 3)
tmpData.setCH = Cells(row, 4)
tmpData.setInzulinF = Cells(row, 5)
tmpData.setInzulinL = Cells(row, 6)
tmpData.setCategory = Cells(row, 8)
tmpData.setDayOfWeek = Weekday(dataList(i).pDate, vbMonday)
'dataList(i).setDate = Format(Cells(row, 2), "MM/dd/yyyy hh:mm:ss")
'dataList(i).setBloodGlucose = Cells(row, 3)
'dataList(i).setCH = Cells(row, 4)
'dataList(i).setInzulinF = Cells(row, 5)
'dataList(i).setInzulinL = Cells(row, 6)
'dataList(i).setCategory = Cells(row, 8)
'dataList(i).setDayOfWeek = Weekday(dataList(i).pDate, vbMonday)
Set dataList(i) = tmpData
Next i
End Sub
And the class module:
Option Explicit
Public pDayOfWeek As Integer
Public pDate As Date
Public pBloodGlucose As Double
Public pCH As Double
Public pInzulinF As Double
Public pInzulinL As Double
Public pCategory As String
Public Property Let setDayOfWeek(Value As Integer)
pDayOfWeek = Value
End Property
Public Property Let setDate(Value As Date)
pDate = Value
End Property
Public Property Let setBloodGlucose(Value As Double)
pBloodGlucose = Value
End Property
Public Property Let setCH(Value As String)
If IsNumeric(Value) Then
setCH = CDbl(Value)
Else
setCH = 0
End If
End Property
Public Property Let setInzulinF(Value As String)
If IsNumeric(Value) Then
pInzulinF = CDbl(Value)
Else
pInzulinF = 0
End If
End Property
Public Property Let setInzulinL(Value As String)
If IsNumeric(Value) Then
pInzulinL = CDbl(Value)
Else
pInzulinL = 0
End If
End Property
Public Property Let setCategory(Value As String)
If Value = "Something" Then
If Hour(pDate) < 9 Then
pCategory = "Something"
ElseIf Hour(pDate) < 11 Then
pCategory = "Something"
ElseIf Hour(pDate) < 14 Then
pCategory = "Something"
ElseIf Hour(pDate) < 16 Then
pCategory = "Something"
ElseIf Hour(pDate) < 19 Then
pCategory = "Something"
ElseIf Hour(pDate) < 21 Then
pCategory = "Something"
End If
Else
pCategory = Value
End If
pCategory = Value
End Property
So my class name is "clsDBM" and I am trying to populate this array with the appropriate data from wholsheet. The table is well formatted, there are no empty lines, so this is not a problem, but I cannot figure out which is ...
Is there a way to fix this and do this (or should I use a completely different approach: D)
Thanks in advance!

use new operator
Dim tmpData As New clsDBM
Because this operator you are using: Dim tmpData As clsDBM
simply defines a variable container or placeholder of the type clsDBM
with a default value Nothing
(similar to: Dim i as Integer
creates an empty integer with a default value of 0
). To create an actual instance of this class object, you need New
it.

To expand on Zsmaster, here's a complete example of populating a 5 element array with your custom class:
Private myCls(0 To 4) As myClass
Private Sub Test()
Dim i As Integer
For i = 0 To 4
Set myCls(i) = New myClass
Next i
End Sub
In your case, you need to start the loop with:
For i = 0 To (RowRange - 1)
row = i + 2
Set tmpData = New clsDBM
tmpData.setDate = Format(Cells(row, 2), "MM/dd/yyyy hh:mm:ss")
'... do stuff...
Set dataList(i) = tmpData
Next i
Or else, forget about the tmpData object and do this:
For i = 0 To (RowRange - 1)
Set dataList(i) = New clsDBM
row = i + 2
dataList(i).setDate = Format(Cells(row, 2), "MM/dd/yyyy hh:mm:ss")
dataList(i). '...Do more stuff...
Next i
