Anywhere where the latter is not a syntax error, there is no difference between the two.

Anywhere else (place where you can only use Public) it /is/ actually rather different
from *either* of the above.


2) What is the difference in scope of:
Private Sub S()
Sub S()

In (2): Nothing, I believe. The absence of a scope qualifier on a Sub or Function implies Private, right?

I think that's the case, but it's not something I'm likely to ever bother to test.
VB has, over the years, given me a serious distaste for defaults.
