Please, can anyone help with the following problem?

I need to know how, and where, to declare a variable that will be used across many sheets and procedures within one workbook.

The workbook contains three sheets.
The first sheet has a login button on it.
The login button activates a form which contains two text boxes for the User ID and Password.
I want to keep the User ID in memory for use with actions performed by other buttons and forms.

Thanks,

Matt...
 

Excel Facts

Which came first: VisiCalc or Lotus 1-2-3?
Dan Bricklin and Bob Frankston debuted VisiCalc in 1979 as a Visible Calculator. Lotus 1-2-3 debuted in the early 1980's, from Mitch Kapor.
Declare the variable using Public rather than Dim, in the Declarations section of a Public module.
