Hi!

I would like to ask a simple question:

If I declare a public variable, which I use for a macro,
will it's value be saved until the next time I run that macro?

I'm not willing to save the value. I just want to know if I can know it'll
be 0 (for an integer) if I don't initialize it manually.
Are there any cases where the value will be saved?

Regards,
Amir.

The value will be saved until the template is unloaded.

Hi Amir,

If you don't explicitly save the value before shutting down Word and
explicitly retrieve it on the next startup, there's nothing in Word
that will save it automatically.

If you have more than one document open during a single session,
things can get confusing with public variables. But closing Word will
discard any values that are only in memory.
