I am finding tons of similar answers to this, but they do not seem to fix my issue. I have a Private Sub DeleteRecord that calls a Public Function recDelete(RowNum As Integer, Payer As String) As Boolean, which is a regular module. In the function, I open a form ufDecision, which I intend to use for multiple record type deletion "Are you sure"... prompts. In the ufDecision, I have this code to capture a response to proceed with deletion:
```
Private Sub imgProceed_Click()
Answer = True
Me.Hide
End Sub
```
I thin intend to assign ```recDelete = Answer``` to pass back to the DeleteRecord sub. Answer is a publicly declared Boolean. After the code is stepped through and confirmed to go through the True assignment, Answer always show false (empty actually). I guess I have tunnel vision. So what am I missing?

Oops, looks like I did not use the proper code tags. Nor does it look like I can edit.

I resolved this. I have a lot of subs across several userforms. Ultimately, even though I had the variable as a public boolean, I had older code setting it to a string.

@Moderator, feel free to delete this thread, as I suspect it will add no value to anyone landing on it.
