CVar (function)

Syntax

CVar(expression)

Description

Converts expression to a Variant.

Comments

This function is used to convert an expression into a variant. Use of this function is not necessary (except for code documentation purposes) because assignment to variant variables automatically performs the necessary conversion:

  Sub Main()

    Dim v As Variant
    v = 4 & "th"      'Assigns "4th" to v.
    MsgBox "You came in: " & v
    v = CVar(4 & "th")    'Assigns "4th" to v.
    MsgBox "You came in: " & v
  End Sub

Example

This example converts an expression into a Variant.

Sub Main()

  Dim s As String
  Dim a As Variant
  s = CStr("The quick brown fox ")
  msg1 = CVar(s & "jumped over the lazy dog.")
  MsgBox msg1
End Sub
