Syntax

FUNCTION CreateVectorEx (BYVAL vt AS VARTYPE, BYVAL cElements AS ULONG, BYVAL lLBound AS LONG, BYVAL pvExtra AS ANY PTR) AS HRESULT

Name		Description
`vt`		The base type of the array (the VARTYPE of each element of the array). The VARTYPE is restricted to a subset of the variant types. Neither the VT_ARRAY nor the VT_BYREF flag can be set. VT_EMPTY and VT_NULL are not valid base types for the array. All other types are legal. The FADF_RECORD flag can be set for a variant type VT_RECORD, The FADF_HAVEIID flag can be set for VT_DISPATCH or VT_UNKNOWN, and FADF_HAVEVARTYPE can be set for all other VARTYPEs. For more information about the FADF_RECORD, FADF_HAVEIID or FADF_HAVEVARTYPE flags see SAFEARRAY Data Type.
`cElements`		The number of elements in the array.
`lLBound`		The lower bound for the array. Can be negative.
`pvExtra`		Points to the type information of the user-defined type, if you are creating a safe array of user-defined types. If the vt parameter is VT_RECORD, then pvExtra will be a pointer to an IRecordInfo interface describing the record. If the vt parameter is VT_DISPATCH or VT_UNKNOWN, then pvExtra will contain a pointer to a GUID representing the type of interface being passed to the array.

S_OK (0) on success or an HRESULT code on failure.

Creates a fixed size safe array from the given VARTYPE, lower bound and number of elements.
