I know the folks here play fast & loose, but I take comfort in having the variables used by any given routine all DIMmed up top. Call me OCD, but I feel it makes my code cleaner, and I think it has to help performance at least a little. I see code with DIM statements inside a loop, is the variable going to be re-allocated each time?
In any case, the benefits of stopping you from mistyping variable names make Option Explicit a no brainer for me.
