Default Dim... As ...

Dim declares a variable, which you can use in your code as ways to save some
data for later use. Within the Dim statement, you can define the type of the
variables, string, long, range, etc., with the As part.

I need some help understanding exactly what this Dim thing is. I
searched in the forum and in the tips, but couldn't find anything. Can
anyone help explain what circumstances require a Dim and what it does
and how to do it?
Thanks,
