Without seeing the whole code and what the variables are assigned,
it's tough to determiine what the variables should return.
The res variables are using a Match function to return the position
within the r array where the dt1 variable first occurs. I know that
sounds a little complex, but that's what it is doing. If you are
receiving an error, it's probably because the Match function can not
find a match to dt1 within the r array.
Application.Match(CLng(dt1), r, 0)
