You cannot create a "variable", you can create an array object: Dim myArray() As Char = New Char(12) {}, for example.

I don't think it can really help you. You are not trying to program or learn programming; you are just doing something you have no idea about. You really need to read some elementary manual and try to learn the very basics, to start with. And with .NET, you should at least understand variables, types, type members, references, reference types vs value types, boxing, methods, method parameters and their passing, and more.
