The DefXXX lines in that class...

>From help:
"Used at module level to set the default data type for variables, arguments
passed to procedures, and the return type for Function and Property Get
procedures whose names start with the specified characters."

AKA, using the DefXXX lines allows the programmer to save about 4 keystrokes
per variable declaration. Just plain lazy imo.... and confusing too. When I
see a line that reads:

Dim X

....I expect that variable to be a Variant and don't want to start searching
the module for left-over DefXXX statements (maybe I'm lazy? <g>). If DefInt
A-Z is there, X would be an integer. If DefLng, X is a Long. There's no
guesswork (or searching) involved when the variable is declared like
this....

Dim X As Long
