Hello, I have a problem in vba. I am trying to use index function(which is an excel function) in vba. Let the function to be:


Function myfunc(a As Range)
mayfunc = Index(a, 1, 2)
End Function

However I get such an error "sub of function undefined" by highlighting "Index". In vba isn't index function defined? If not, what is its counterpart in vba? Thanks a lot. Best regards.

try:
myfunc = WorksheetFunction.Index(a, 1, 2)

You can use directly range(row_number, column_number)

Function myfunc(a As Range)
mayfunc = a(1, 2)
End Function

One other point I would add to this, if you want to use worksheet functions in VBA you need to preface the function with WorksheetFunction or Application for example:

Sub IndexFunctionInVBA()
x = WorksheetFunction.Index(Range("C17:C32"), 1, 1)
MsgBox x
End Sub
