VB Language

Static Arrays

A static array has a fixed size or number of elements. You specify the array size when you declare it, and the size cannot change during program execution.  The size will be one more than n because VBA array indexes start by default at 0.

You can use an integer variable or constant as the index.

String

String variables are used to hold text data.  A fixed-length string can be declared to contain anywhere from 1 to about 64,000 characters.  To declare a fixed-length string, use the String keyword followed by the * (asterisk) symbol and the desired size.

TimeSerial

Use the TimeSerial function to create time values for type Date variables.

For TimeSerial, the values are normally in the range 0 to 23 for hours, and 0 to 59 for minutes and seconds. Larger values wrap to the next larger unit; therefore, a seconds value of 90 corresponds to one minute and 30 seconds
