I'm either horribly confused, or old age is taking its toll. But there seems
to be too many options for declaring variables and I;m having trouble
figuring out the best way for declaring variables.

Tell me if I have it straight:

variables declared at the top of a module are shared within all procedures
in the module, decalred within a procedure/function are available to only
that procedure/function

variables declared Public are available to all modules
- in this workbook only or all workbooks?
- so these should be declared at the top of a module?

variables declared Static retain their values between procedure/function calls
- declare in a procedure/function

variables do not retain their values once hte code stops and control returns
to the user, so if you want to retain values you need to stor ethem in a cell
in the spreadsheet

Sound right?

Thanks!
