DefUInt
 
Specifies a default data type for a range of variable names

Syntax

DefUInt start_letter[-end_letter ][, ...]

Parameters

start_letter
the first letter in the range
end_letter
the last letter in the range

Description

DefUInt specifies that variables and arrays which aren't declared with a data type - or not declared at all - are implicitly declared of type UInteger if the first letter of their names matches a certain letter or lies within an inclusive range of letters.

Example

This will make uNumber a UInteger number since its first letter starts with u.

DefInt u
Dim uNumber
