How to use single point SQL results in Access VBA code

Suppose I write a SQL query, giving a single point result (for instance, SELECT COUNT(*) FROM persons). After doing the query, I want a assign it's result to a variable with the identical type. How do I do that?

For example:
Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. SQL = "SELECT COUNT(*) FROM persons"
  2. Set Db = CurrentDb
  3. Set rst = Db.OpenRecordset(SQL, dbOpenDynaset)
  4.  
So, rst holds the result, which has to be an integer. Just... how can I use rst of the RecordSet type in such a way?
