Caution

Microsoft.VisualBasic.Compatibility.* classes are obsolete and supported within 32 bit processes only. http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=160862

Public Function CopyArray (SourceArray As Array) As Array

Parameters

SourceArray
Array

A Array.

Returns

The array to copy.

Attributes

Remarks

The Visual Basic 6.0 Variant data type is no longer supported in Visual Basic. The CopyArray function is used by the upgrade tools to copy an Array to or from a Variant array.

To copy an array in Visual Basic, use the Clone, Copy or CopyTo methods of the Array class.

Note

Functions and objects in the Microsoft.VisualBasic.Compatibility.VB6 namespace are provided for use by the tools for upgrading from Visual Basic 6.0 to Visual Basic 2008. In most cases, these functions and objects duplicate functionality that you can find in other namespaces in the .NET Framework. They are necessary only when the Visual Basic 6.0 code model differs significantly from the .NET Framework implementation.
