Quick and dirty:

A procedure is a collection of commands which will be executed.

As sub is a procedure without return value.

A function is a procedure which returns a value.

'Private' will restrict access to the procedure within the same class
only.

That's not valid code, so it means you'll get a compile error. ;-)

Addendum:

Private ask()

statment
........
End private

[...] 'Private' will restrict access to the procedure within the same class
only.

BTW: Your code won't compile.

Private Sub Ask()

Hi, if you've looked at code, and seen Private only, then you will have seen
a module-level variable declaration, there is no block syntax for private...
Private...End Private, it doesn't exist.

Private m_Var As String

This will declare a variable at the module-level, that's available only to
the class that it is declared in:

Public Class [MyClass]
Private m_Var As String

Public Sub Foobar()
MsgBox(m_Var)
End Sub
End Class

I rarely ask this question - but if, it's the simplest answer. ;-)
