    Does anyone know how I can reset an integer variable (or any numeric variable come to that) to it's initial state i.e. the state it was at run time? I don't want to set it to "0".

    A string can be cleared by: string = "", but this can't be used for an integer, neither can the "Null" command.

    Thanks

    0 is the unitialised state for all numric variables, so settign it to 0 is effectively resetting it

    How about setting it to empty. Can that be used for integers?

    I don't have VB to hand...

    Try vbNullString.

    Code:
    string = vbNullString
    It is also very simple to make 0 = Nothing, but you said you did not want to use 0.
