The meaning of the mfTab

[Frank Situmorang]

Hello,

I appreciate if anybody can help me explaining the meaning of of this VBA:
Private mfTab As Boolean

Thanks a lot

Private is like Dim. It declares a variable.
This one is a Boolean, i.e. it accepts a yes/no value.

The prefix "m" suggests that is it s module-level variable. See if it
occured in the General Declarations section of the module (top, with the
Option statements.) If so, the Private (instead of Dim) means that its scope
is limited to code in this module, i.e. code in other modules cannot refer
to mfTab.

The second prefix "f" probably means it is a flag - synomym for yes/no type.
