user defined types (vb6)

[isotope11]

I have this code in the general declarations section of the form:

Option Explicit
 
Type Example
Value1 as Integer
Value2 as Integer
End Type

and got this in the Form_Load:

Dim Unit as Example
Unit.Value1 = 1
Unit.Value2 = 2
Label1 = CStr(Unit.Value2)
 

then some sort of error comes out. What I have done wrong?

you only need private key in front of the declaration of type.
It will become public if u not explicity write it,
then public user defined type only allow in module

Option Explicit
Private Type Example
 Value1 As Integer
 Value2 As Integer
End Type

Could you be more specific than "some sort of error"?
