PRIVATE

Specifies a procedure having internal linkage

Syntax:Private Sub procedure_name [Overload] [Cdecl|Stdcall|Pascal] [Alias "external_name"] [([parameter_list])] [Constructor [priority]] [Static] [Export] ..procedure body.. End Sub Private Function procedure_name [Overload] [Cdecl|Stdcall|Pascal] [Alias "external_name"] [([parameter_list])] as return_type [Static] [Export] ..procedure body.. End Function
Description:

In procedure definitions, Private specifies that a procedure has internal linkage, meaning it's name is not visible to external modules.

The Option Private statement allows procedures to be defined with internal linkage by default.

Examples:

'e.g.

Private Sub i_am_private
End Sub

Sub i_am_public
End Sub
