Default Global Variable

I'M still having a little trouble. Here is my code

Public name As String
Public team As String
Public TeamLeader As String
Public CommandN As String



Public Sub FindUser()
currentuser = Application.UserName
Workbooks.Open "Z:/Systemdown/Userfile.xls"
lastrow =
Workbooks("Userfile.xls").Sheets("UserData").Range ("A65536").End(xlUp).Row

For Each person In Workbooks("Userfile.xls").Sheets("UserData").Range ("A2:A"
& lastrow)
If person.Value = currentuser Then
Set name = person.Offset(0, 1).Value
Set team = person.Offset(0, 2).Value

lastrow2 =
Workbooks("Userfile.xls").Sheets("UserData").Range ("A65536").End(xlUp).Row
For Each Teamgroup In
Workbooks("Userfile.xls").Sheets("Command").Range( "A2:A" & lastrow2)
If Teamgroup.Value = team Then
Set TeamLeader = Teamgroup.Offset(0, 1).Value

Set CommandN = Teamgroup.Offset(0, 2).Value
Else
End If
Next Teamgroup
Else
End If
Next person
Workbooks("Userfile.xls").Close

End Sub

The user file has two sheets.

Userdata with colums ID, Name and Team
Command with Team, Team Leader and Command.

The Macro is meant to use application.UserName to find who is currently
runing the program. It is then meant to look up from the tables there name,
Team, Team Leader and Command. These are then going to used to set up the
save directory on a shared drive for the user. That's why I need the
variables to go Global as I need them in other modules.

When I run the code as above I get mismatch errors when trying to set the
data to the variable.

Can someone suggest where i'm going wrong.
