Sorry to shock you, Bob <vbg.

I agree everything you've said here about comments. It's just that Jim
said he comments *all* of his variables, so presumably we'd see either
something you (and me) would call 'useless' e.g.

' Declare an ADO Connection object
Dim adoConn As ADODB.Connection

or something I'd called a non-meaningful name e.g.

Dim var1 As String ' Connection string value
Dim var2 As ADODB.Connection ' ADO connection object
