Local Variables: Dim Sum As Integer

This document discusses different types of variables in Visual Basic - local variables, static variables, module level variables, and public vs local variables. It also covers different types of procedures like sub procedures, event procedures, function procedures, and property procedures. Various VB selection and loop structures are described like If/Then, Select/Case, Do/Loop, While, For/Next, and With/End With. Finally, it discusses date/time functions like DateDiff and Format.

Local Variables

Dim sum As Integer

Static Variables
preserves value even when a procedure ends. Static intPermanent As Integer all variables in a procedure static Static Function RunningTotal ( )

Module Levele Variables


available to all the procedures in the module Private LoginTime As Date Public variables in BAS modules are global variables

Public vs Local Variables


References to the name R within the procedure would access the local variable and references to R outside the procedure would access the public variable.

Sub Procedures
[Private | Public] [Static] Sub Procedurename [( arglist)] [ statements] End Sub

Event Procedures
write common statements in a separate procedure (general procedure) and then call them in the event procedure.

Function Procedures
Function Hypotenuse (A As Double, B As Double) As Double Hypotenuse = sqr (A^2 + B^2) End Function

Property Procedures

The calculation and conversion functions related to date and time functions are listed below. Function DateAdd ( ) DateDiff ( ) DatePart ( ) DateValue ( ) TimeValue ( ) DateSerial ( ) Description Returns a date to which a specific interval has been added Returns a Long data type value specifying the interval between the two values Returns an Integer containing the specified part of a given date Converts a string to a Date Converts a string to a time Returns a date for specified year, month and day

Function DateAdd ( ) DateDiff ( )

Description Returns a date to which a specific interval has been added Returns a Long data type value specifying the interval between the two values Returns an Integer containing the specified part of a given date Converts a string to a Date Converts a string to a time Returns a date for specified year, month and day

DatePart ( ) DateValue ( ) TimeValue ( ) DateSerial ( )

DateDiff Function
The DateDiff function returns the intervals between two dates in terms of years, months or days. The syntax for this is given below.
DateDiff (interval, date1, date2[, firstdayofweek[, firstweekofyear]])

Format Function
The format function accepts a numeric value and converts it to a string in the format specified by the format argument. The syntax for this is given below.
Format (expression[, format[, firstdayofweek[, firstweekofyear]]])

The Format function syntax has these parts:


Part Expression format firstdayofweek Description Required any valid expression Optional. A valid named or user-defined format expression. Optional. A contant that specifies the first day of the week.

firstweekofyear

Optional. A contant that specifies the first week of the year
