Although the Very Large Array (VLA) and the Very Large Baseline Array (VLBA) were originally intended as centimeter wavelength instruments, the exciting results from high resolution millimeter radio astronomy over the last ten years have generated interest in pushing these arrays into the millimeter region. This report will describe two aspects of recent development at NRAO: the new capability of the VLA at 7mm wavelength which will be operational in 1994, and the completion of the VLBA with its anticipated use at 7mm and 3.6mm.
