Assigns the value of an expression to a variable or property.
[Let] varname = expression |
The Let statement syntax has these parts:
Part | Description |
Let | Optional. Explicit use of the Let keyword is a matter of style, but it is usually omitted. |
varname | Required. Name of the variable or property; follows standard variable naming conventions. |
expression | Required. Value assigned to the variable or property. |
In ConceptDraw Basic value expression, assigned to variable varname
can be of any type. The type of expression will become the same as the
type of varname.
If varname is of Variant type, then varname will be given
the same type as expression. It's assumed that the Variant-variable
varname has subtype identical to the type of expression.
Use the Set statement to assign object references to variables.
This example assigns the values of expressions to variables using the explicit Let statement.
Dim MyStr, MyInt ' The following variable assignments use the Let statement. Let MyStr = "Hello World" Let MyInt = 5 |
The following are the same assignments without the Let statement.
Dim MyStr, MyInt MyStr = "Hello World" MyInt = 5 |
