kashmar Posted August 14, 2007 Share Posted August 14, 2007 Hi, i don't know if this question has been asked before but i was wondering what is the best way to declare a variable? Which is better Dim, Local or Global ? The help file doesn't offer much help about this so maybe one of the experts can help me out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kip Posted August 14, 2007 Share Posted August 14, 2007 There is no "the best" way.Dim = Local scope if the variable name doesn't already exist globally (in which case it reuses the global variable!)Global = Forces creation of the variable in the Global scopeLocal = Forces creation of the variable in the Local/Function scope MailSpons: Fake SMTP server for safe email testing Dutch postcode & address API.

The help file doesn't offer much help about this so maybe one of the experts can help me out.As a general rule (which has a few exceptions to 'prove' it) declare Global outside of Func/EndFunc and Local inside them.
