I make a function to collect all worksheet names under active folder and store them in a string array. But how can I use this string array in other functions?

Hello,

StringArray is just a vector of type string, and so you can write code such as:


void test()
{
	StringArray sa(3);
	sa[0] = "one";
	sa[1] = "two";
	sa[2] = "three";
	test2( sa );
}

void test2(StringArray& sa)
{
	for(int ii = 0; ii < sa.GetSize(); ii++)
		out_str( sa[ii] );
}




which is same as:


void test()
{
	vector<string> sa(3);
	sa[0] = "one";
	sa[1] = "two";
	sa[2] = "three";
	test2( sa );
}

void test2(vector<string>& sa)
{
	for(int ii = 0; ii < sa.GetSize(); ii++)
		out_str( sa[ii] );
}

Thank you very much for your code, Easwar! But that is not what I exactly want. What I want is that test() is an indepentant function, and I would like to use this function in other functions, for example test2() . Maybe I didn't say it clearly. The following code can do it.

vector<string> test()
{
vector<string> sa(3);
sa[0] = "one";
sa[1] = "two";
sa[2] = "three";
return sa;
}
void test2()
{
vector<string> sa2;
sa2 = test();
for(int ii = 0; ii < sa2.GetSize(); ii++)
out_str( sa2[ii] );
}

When I run test2(), I can get the results for test(). Or is there any other code can do this as well?

Your code works fine so I'm not sure what you are asking. Do you want an alternative to vector<string> test()? This will work...
void test(SringArray &sa) 
{
	sa.SetSize(3);
	sa[0] = "one"; 
	sa[1] = "two"; 
	sa[2] = "three"; 
}
void test2() 
{ 
	StringArray sa; 
	test(sa); 
	for(int ii = 0; ii < sa.GetSize(); ii++) 
		out_str( sa[ii] ); 
}

Great! This is exactly what I want!
I don't like vector<string> test(), so I don't satisfied with my code although it works.
Thank you guys for your help. It's realy a good forum.
