"Dim" query
I've recently discovered the Locals window in Excel VBE thanks to a pointer
in this forum, but I have a question about the way variables are displayed there. I have a string variable sTPPath. If I do not dimension it, it appears as Variant/Empty. If I dimension it as a string it appears as String. The variable is then populated with a folder path. OK so far. This variable is then passed to another routine uisng: Call FindTempPrepPath(sTPPath) Once in this routine sTPPath appears as Variant/String. Is this a problem, as I run into problems if I then try to dimension the variable in the sub-routine (duplicate declaration in current scope) as I would expect.. Why does this appear as Variant/String rather than String? It's almost as if the subroutine doesn't recognise the previous Dim statement. Ian |
