In previous versions of Visual Basic, DefBool, DefByte, DefInt, DefLng, DefCur, DefSng, DefDbl, DefDec, DefDate, DefStr, DefObj and DefVar are used in the declarations section of a module to define a range of variables as a certain type. For example, DefInt A-C defines all variables beginning with the letter A, B, or C as an integer. Instead of using Def<type> statements, you should explicitly declare variables.
- Computed GoTo/GoSub
- Option Base
- VarPtr, ObjPtr, StrPtr
- LSet
- the As Any variable type in a Declare statement
