Does Diming a variable before using it make it any faster for the program to access it?

Hi Doug

The answer is yes. But unless you have a large project the speed difference will not be noticeable. If you do not Dim variables all are treated as variants, which means Excel has to set aside more bytes than it would if it were dimensioned.
