The attached macro formats input to output. The final steps shown below transfer the contents of the array 'y' to the sheet 'output'.

A simple message box tells me that array element y(1,10) is 10.4513

Excellent! Just what I wanted.

However, when I look on the output tab in cell J2, I am disappointed to see that it produced a value of 10.45, dropping off two decimal places.I have worked with this for quite some time, but have not found a way to get it to show the correct values, 10.4513 in J2 for example. (impacts entire column j and k)

What would you guys change in the code above to get it to work?

Thanks in advance,

In The attached macro which formats input to output, change from .NumberFormat: ="0.00" to .NumberFormat = "0.0000" and make sure your output worksheet column is formated for 4 decimials (cell format)

Thank you for the suggested solution.I changed the formatting as indicated above and reran the macro.

Unfortunately, I tried this before and it did not do anything to resolve the issue.

It is not a formatting problem, but rather the actual numbers themselves are truncated improperly.

Any other suggestions?

I added the link to my original post. My apologies for cross posting without reference. It is nice to now understand why links are needed.

After more than a decade of posting on many online forums, this is the first time I thought about it this way (also makes sense since excel solutions take longer to create sometimes).
