[Gambas-user] vb code

[d4t4full at ...626...]

Actually a type in VBA (old VB6 and MSOffice Basic) is not regarded as an object, it is more akin to a C Struc.

All you do to use it is "Dim myVar As UserType". You use New for object classes only, and Type is not a class or object.

The Private clause makes the user type definition accessible only in the form, module or class where it is defined, making the type unavsilable to others.
