Bill,
Thanks for your input.

I think that as long as I ensure I initialize the
variable in the first sub that I use it in, I should be
OK.

What is your opinion on declaring the variables in a sub
that is executed when the spreadsheet is opened so that
they would be available to any macro following.

The sheet is rarely used without running some macro.

Module-level variables (whether Public or not) have
space permanently
allocated. So having 2 sets will consume twice as much
space.

However, I would not advocate using Public variables in
case you end up
changing the sequence in which things are done and get
conflicting
usage of the same variable between procedures in
different modules.
