    Yeah, now I understand. You're not doing VB for money. You're doing VB for a lot of money.

      which would result in it being a variant, hence perfectly valid code, AFAIK.

        Many programmers use several languages. The favorite language at home, the project language at work, some horrible languages for maintenance, and - in the worst case - VB for a job that was better than staying unemployed. That means, you can be a programmer, but still be forced to use VB.

        This statement is false.

                  I'm not claiming to be a VB expert ;) I did some ASP+VBS once, and I sometimes have to dabble a bit in VBA. The "no semicolon" almost always hit me, repeatedly. (worst in VB6, where it would pop up a Syntax Error message box when you left the line. Gah!)

                    Well, if I would able to understand VB syntax then I should say you know well VB syntax... :-D

                    Unlike those uneducated masses hating VB out of consensus with majority, I hate it because i know enough about it to hate it.

                          I only read code that is properly formatted, adding PRE tags is the easiest way to obtain that.
