| When you do "dim temp as integer" | Ben on Jan 21 |
| * Number variables default to Single (4 bytes). So who is wasting more memory? |
on Jan 21 |
| * Exactly, INTEGER is 16 bits or 8 bytes so you are saving memory | qbguy on Jan 21 |
| * I mean 16 bits or 2 bytes, with 8 bits to the byte. | qbguy on Jan 21 |
| does this mean.... |
on Jan 24 |
| Each variable will use the bytes by the type |
