Option Explicit Statement
Forces explicit declaration of all variables in a script.
Option Explicit
Remarks
If used, the Option Explicit statement must appear in a script before
any other statements.
When you use the Option Explicit statement, you must explicitly
declare all variables using the Dim, Private, Public, or
ReDim statements. If you attempt to use an undeclared variable name, an
error occurs.
Tip Use Option Explicit to avoid
incorrectly typing the name of an existing variable or to avoid confusion in
code where the scope of the variable is not clear.
The following example illustrates use of the Option Explicit
statement. Option Explicit ' Force explicit variable declaration.
Dim MyVar ' Declare variable.
MyInt = 10 ' Undeclared variable generates error.
MyVar = 10 ' Declared variable does not generate error.
