    Range of copied cells based on the range of a UDF array function

    It seems as if it should be easy, but I am stumped.
    I am trying to write an array UDF with one argument - a cell range. The function is supposed to copy a block of data indicated by the cell range which is the same size as the function array. For example, if =movecells(B3) is entered into the 5x3 array H4:J8, it returns the contents of the 5x3 block of cells with B3 at the top left. In other word, the function copies the values in cells B3:D7 over into into H4:J8.
    Any thoughts appreciated.
    Thanks, kat

    A UDF can only return values to the cell(s) it's entered in.

    UDF Rules
    Surround your VBA code with CODE tags e.g.;
    [CODE]your VBA code here[/CODE]
    The # button in the forum editor will apply CODE tags around your selected text.

    Disregard the previous post. I misread the query.
