How do I Declare a Variable/Constant?

[Coogrr]

I am writing a set of macros to use in PowerPoint. One of the macros
asks the user to input a prefix. the code is shown below:
Sub Prefix()
ActiveWindow.View.GotoSlide
Index:=ActivePresentation.Slides.Add(Index:=2,
Layout:=ppLayoutText).SlideIndex
ActiveWindow.Selection.SlideRange.Layout = ppLayoutBlank
Dim Message, Title, Default, MyValue
Message = "Enter Frame Number Prefix" ' Set prompt.
Title = "Frame Number Prefix" ' Set title.
Default = "0000" ' Set default.
' Display message, title, and default value.
MyPrefix = InputBox(Message, Title, Default)
End Sub
I want to use MyPrefix in another macro that asks the user to enter a
Framenumber as shown below:
Sub FrameNumber()
ActiveWindow.View.GotoSlide
Index:=ActivePresentation.Slides.Add(Index:=2,
Layout:=ppLayoutText).SlideIndex
ActiveWindow.Selection.SlideRange.Layout = ppLayoutBlank
Dim Message, Title, Default, MyValue
Message = "Enter Frame Number" ' Set prompt.
Title = "Create Frame Number" ' Set title.
Default = "ABC 0000" ' Set default.
' Display message, title, and default value.
MyValue = InputBox(Message, Title, Default)
ActiveWindow.Selection.SlideRange.Shapes.AddLabel( msoTextOrientationHorizon*tal,

293.75, 66.625, 14.5, 18).Select
ActiveWindow.Selection.ShapeRange.TextFrame.WordWr ap = msoFalse
With ActiveWindow.Selection.TextRange.ParagraphFormat
.LineRuleWithin = msoTrue
.SpaceWithin = 1
.LineRuleBefore = msoTrue
.SpaceBefore = 0.5
.LineRuleAfter = msoTrue
.SpaceAfter = 0
End With
With ActiveWindow.Selection.ShapeRange
.Fill.ForeColor.RGB = RGB(237, 246, 247)
.Fill.Visible = msoTrue
.Fill.Solid
End With
With ActiveWindow.Selection.ShapeRange
.Line.ForeColor.RGB = RGB(255, 255, 102)
.Line.Visible = msoTrue
End With
ActiveWindow.Selection.ShapeRange.IncrementLeft -135#
ActiveWindow.Selection.ShapeRange.TextFrame.TextRa nge.Font.Size =
12
ActiveWindow.Selection.ShapeRange.TextFrame.TextRa nge.Characters(Start:=1,

Length:=0).Select
MyText = "Frame # "
TotalText = MyText + MyPrefix + MyValue
With ActiveWindow.Selection.TextRange
.Text = TotalText
With .Font
.Name = "Arial"
.Size = 12
.Bold = msoFalse
.Italic = msoFalse
.Underline = msoFalse
.Shadow = msoFalse
.Emboss = msoFalse
.BaselineOffset = 0
.AutoRotateNumbers = msoFalse
.Color.SchemeColor = ppForeground
End With
End With
End Sub
How do I get MyPrefix to be defined as a public constant (or variable)
so once MyPrefix is entered it will be picked up and used by
Framenumber each time framenumber is run?
Thanks,
Dennis

Problem solved. Added the following to the project level:

Public MyPrefix As String
