I created a subprocedure that includes a recordset as follows:
Private Sub Combo17_Click()
'Declaring object and string variables
Dim DB As Database
Dim rec As Recordset
Dim sDealName As String
'Assign Object variable to current database
Set DB = CurrentDb
'Assign object variable to recordset
Set rec = DB.OpenRecordse t("qryName", dbOpenDynaset)
'Comparison of value from user to recordset
rec.FindFirst "[EmployeeID] =" & Nz(Me!Combo17.V alue, 0)
'If no match is found, user receives error message _
'exit routine
If rec.NoMatch Then
MsgBox "Check your entry", vbCritical, "No Matches"
Me!Combo17.Valu e = ""
Exit Sub
Else
' If record is found, value entered by user is passed to variable sFirstName
sDealName = Nz(rec.Fields(" Firstname"), "")
If sDealName = "" Then
MsgBox "Your sDealName does not exist"
Me!Combo17.Valu e = ""
Exit Sub
End If
End If
rec.Close
End Sub
The problem is that the variable sDealName loses scope when I close the recordset. I need to pass the value from this sDeal variable to another subprocedure.
Thank you.

Hi there,
Declare the variable in a module file as public variable, kindly refer to below sample, good luck & take care. -
'Some module file
-
Public sVariableName as String

Do yo want to store this value for use later or do you wish to use it immediately?

I want to store this value for use later.
I want to store this value for use later.
Then you can either use a global variable as per Saashi above or, if the form you are using is not going to be closed, put the following code at the top of the form code module:
Private variable_name As variable_type
This will remain in scope for as long as the form is open and will not suffer from the problems of using global variables which you can get lost with if you have several forms and modules.

Thank you. I used the global variable and it works!

Hi,
I want to do things this way:
I have a bunch of stuff that I want to keep track of while a user is
connected to the site. Maybe 50 little peices of information.
So I know I can make 50 session variables , or an store an array in a
session variable, but what I wanna do is store it all in a class
so I can use property get and property let.

VARIABLE SCOPE IN JAVASCRIPT

First off, what the heck is 'scope' (the kind that doesn't help kill the germs that cause bad breath)? Scope describes the context in which a variable can be used. For example, if a variable's scope is a certain function, then that variable can only be used in that function. If you were to try to access that variable anywhere else in...

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
Here is my compilation command:
