Example, I have some udt's such as:

public aaa as Type
x as integer
y as single
end type

public bbb()

Then in my main module:

redim bbb(1000) as aaa

When I exit the program do I need to release either the type (aaa) or the array which is (bbb)? And if I do, how do I release them? I tried set as nothing but it didn't work. Thanks for any help.

I don't think a release is necessary, but if you're concerned about memory you can always erase the array

Erase bbb

Also, how about decalring the datatype up front?

Public bbb() As aaa
ReDim bbb(1000)

Thanks Noi!

I'm declaring in a module, based on a var read from file. Looks like erase is the best option, thanks!

"Set xxx = Nothing" only works for classes (objects).
Whatever. Who knows...
