Loop and range problem

In the code, each of the ranges is of length 8, filled with double values. For this test they are either 0 a 2 digit decimal. The test hangs executing the 1st line in the loop. I tested Max and it equals 8. The 1st debug.print:

Debug.Print I, O(I, 1), E(I, 1), L(I, 1)

seems to print out correctly:

1 0 0.4 0.2

although I don't fully understand what's happening in the print out [why does it repeat 3 times?]:

1 0 0.4 0.2
1
1 0 0.4 0.2
1
1 0 0.4 0.2
1

Function sniff(core As Double, lim As Double, Baser As Range, Extra As Range, Opn As Range, _
        Clse As Range, Last As Range, Preset As Range, ndx As Integer) As Double
    
    Dim MAX As Integer, sum As Double, num As Integer, I As Integer, scal As Double

    Dim doit(8)
    Dim B()
    Dim E()
    Dim O()
    Dim C()
    Dim L()
    Dim P()

    
    MAX = Baser.Rows.Count
    B = Baser
    E = Extra
    O = Opn
    C = Clse
    L = Last
    P = Preset


        sum = core
        num = 0
        For I = 1 To MAX
            num = num + 1
            Debug.Print I, O(I, 1), E(I, 1), L(I, 1)
            If O(I, 1) = 1 Then doit(I) = E(I, 1) Else doit(I) = L(I, 1)
            
         '   If C(I, 1) = 1 Then
         '       If P(I, 1) > 0 Then doit(I) = minf(doit(I), P(I, 1)) Else doit(I) = 0
         '   End If
            Debug.Print num

            sum = sum + doit(I)
        Next I
            Debug.Print sum

Not sure but your first debug.print call is in a loop so I'm guessing that could be why.
