XL7: Integer Example in Help Should Not Exceed 32767

ID: Q133315

The information in this article applies to:
  • Microsoft Excel for Windows 95, version 7.0
In Microsoft Excel 7.0, the following example in the Declaring Constants example in Visual Basic Help is incorrect: 

   Const age as Integer = 34, wage as Integer = 35000
This information is incorrect because the maximum value an Integer data type can have is 32767. This example exceeds that limit.
