Re: Declaration problem

Longs are the native size and therefore more effecient than ints on 32
bit machines. Well (slightly) faster anyway, memory is the same I
think.

You can keep it as an int if you do the 38000-8000 shuffle (which lets
vb know one of the args is a long). This therefore does not affect
your declaration of x.

You are right, it is odd, I'm sure I read about this a long time ago,
no idea where though. It looks like the issue is still there in .net
if thats any consolation.

cheers
Simon
