I could declare an array thus:

    dim arrTest() as variant

or thus:

    dim arrTest as variant
    arrtest = array()

however, the first can only be passed as an argument like this:

    sub(byref array() as variant)

and the second like this:

    sub(byref array as variant)

What is the difference between a variable object declared the first way, and a variable object declared the second? Why do macros treat them differently?
