Ok, for example, in coding for 3d you have to write something like
heli3d.setposition 5, 0, 5, ds3d_immediate
Well, I came across three different variants I hadn't realized were even
there. First I had ds3d - immediate,
in another place I had ds3d_imeediate
and somewhere else I had d3d_immediate.
The option explicit made me see all those problems and fix them.
I am using NVDA, and wordpad to do the programming, so the punctuation
wasn't spoken--and it would drive me nuts if it were, so I missed all that.
The option explicit is like a net. Yeah, having to declare variables is a
pain, but I think it saves some time in the long run.

Hi Ken,
The first thing that I did when I started writing in VB6 was to get rid of
the option explicit. I had never needed to declare variables in any Basic
before and I did not want to start.
May I ask what you mean by you'll slip by with bad errors if you do not
use the option explicit?
Thanks.

Never test for an error you don't know how to handle.
