Declare your dim as a variant  and pull the data as you would from an array   i e    Dim y As Variant y   Range  A1 B2     Now your excel range is all 1 variable  array   y  To pull the data  call the array position in the range  A1 B2  or whatever you choose  e g    Msgbox y 1  1    This will return the top left box in the  A1 B2  range

When you use a Range object  you cannot simply use the following syntax   Dim myRange as Range myRange   Range  A1       You must use the set keyword to assign Range objects   Function getData currentWorksheet As Worksheet  dataStartRow As Integer  dataEndRow As Integer  DataStartCol As Integer  dataEndCol As Integer       Dim dataTable As Range     Set dataTable   currentWorksheet Range currentWorksheet Cells dataStartRow  DataStartCol   currentWorksheet Cells dataEndRow  dataEndCol        Set getData   dataTable  End Function  Sub main       Dim test As Range      Set test   getData ActiveSheet  1  3  2  5      test select  End Sub   Note that every time a range is declared I use the Set keyword      You can also allow your getData function to return a Range object instead of a Variant although this is unrelated to the problem you are having
