beginning_vb thread: Option Explicit


Message #1 by "Greg Jones" <gjones67@s...> on Thu, 2 Aug 2001 03:11:05
Hello,

    I understand thoroughly what Option Explicit does, but can't seem to 

find where in the VB6 environment that I can set it so that 'Option 

Explicit' is automatically inserted at the beginning of all my code.  

Obvioiusly typing it in isn't a big deal, unless you forget! :)  I forget 

easy.  I didn't find it in the book and tried the VB6 online help, but it 

doesn't say.  Thanks.  Great book by the way.



Sincerely,

Greg Jones

hi, greg,



do it with "Tools"->"Option..."->"Editor"->"Require variable

declaration".

Go to Tools, Options and check the box that says Require Variable

Declaration.

Greg -

1. Open VB6 and start a standard project

2. Click Tools/Options

3. On the Editor Tab click "Require Variable Declaration"



Option Explicit will not be in your First Form, but subsequent Forms will

have it inserted automatically.



Good luck.

Once you have checked "Require Variable Declaration" subsequent new forms

will have Option Explicit inserted, but until there is a form open, you can

not get to Tools. After making the election, I returned to the initial Form

and "Option Explicit" was not included as the first line in General. Close

and then reopen VB and start a new project and Option Explicit will be

there. Or open a new Form in the initial Project and you'll have it.

Thanks guys.  If I was patient and read on it tells me.  I guess I need to 

practice my patience.  Mucho Danke.  (little Spanish and German there :) )
