Dear Reader,

This may seem like a pointless question but it's pure curiosity. I'm going over some tutorials on basic stuff like using Form_Load () to simply Print "Hello World" onto a Form. The code I stumbled upon is this,

Code:
Private Sub
A = Tom
B = "likes"
C = "to"
D = "eat"
E = "burgers"
Print A+B+C+D+E

End Sub
The code by itself does not work. Originally because it doesn't have anything after Sub, an identifier I believe it's called. Also, the quotations are unnecessary. The only one that is necessary to have a quotation is to because it's an ambiguous term. Overall the code doesn't work. So I'm trying to change it into something that DOES work. Here's what I came up with:

Code:
Private Sub Form_Load ()
A = Tom
B = likes
C = eating
D = burgers

Print A + B + C + D

End Sub
However that doesn't work either. I tried
Code:
Dim A As String
But that doesn't work either. Obviously, I Dim'd B..C..D also. I would like to know what I am doing wrong, why it's the way it should be (like what makes it correct), and what it should be.

Again, this is for learning purposes only because I'm curious about Visual Basic 6 immensely.

Thank you for taking the time to read this message.
