subroutine

[khatri milan]

i have initiated value for some variable inside a module and called a subroutine.Inside that subroutine i have formula which uses those variables.will the subroutine recognize those varibles and their respective values even if i dont pass those values as arguemetns into subroutine?

 

[Paul Ked]

Not unless they were declared outside a sub eg

Option Explicit


Public Variable1 As Long


Sub test1()
    Variable1 = 12345
    test2
End Sub


Sub test2()
    MsgBox Variable1
End Sub

when try to declare variable outside sub the lines of code moves upward into the end of previous subroutine.will that be problem? and when i do declare variable like you said and change value of variable inside subroutine, will changed value of variable be available outside subroutine ?

when try to declare variable outside sub the lines of code moves upward into the end of previous subroutine.

No idea what you mean by that... can you give an example?

when i do declare variable like you said

You declare it in a Code module, once it's written it's active.

change value of variable inside subroutine

Whenever you need to, or after a calculation.

will changed value of variable be available outside subroutine ?

The variable will remain until you either change it or the workbook is closed.

i tried to insert my screenshot but the insert image option ask for url only, how can i upload from my pc.

 

[Paul Ked]

Save the image to dropbox/google drive/one drive etc, then post the url. Even better if you can post your workbook, we can see exactly what's going on then.

Subroutine in VBA is often used incorrectly. Code that starts with the word "Sub" is not a subroutine but a Sub Procedure. A true subroutine is code within the Sub or Function procedure that executes when a GoSub statement transfers control to the code block. When the subroutine finishes and the Return statement is executed, execution resumes after the GoSub statement in the Sub or Function procedure.
