very easy if you know the command/syntax

I have a variable v inside macro1. Macro1 uses (ie calls) macro3 which also uses the same variable v. I can't get macro3 to reflect the true value of v as determined from macro1.

I beleive it's something to do with public/private declaration ?

Q1 - is there an easy command in macro3 that takes the value for v from macro1 ?
something like v = v["macro1"]()

Q2 If not, what's the public/private declaration, where does it go, and what's the correct syntax.

Q3 What if there is a macro2 between macro1 and 3. (ie macro1 calls macro2, which calls macro3)
Does this complicate matters in terms of commands/syntax etc.

Non technical answers please as am not in IT.

Thanks, airhead

Hmm, I tried to reply to Blubs thread and it ends up in here? Pfff!

You dont say which app. But under the general declartions section when you use the visual basic editor. For the module which shares macro 1 and macro 3 then put

Dim v As Integer

in and this will make v available to both macros.

it was vb for excel.

Thanks for that. Yes, doing the dim statement as stated does work.
