Hello!
Please, what are "variant type " variables?
(If we write like:
Dim MyVar1, MyVar2 As Integer
For detailed information about data types see
https://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/DevGuide/ProUNO/Basic/Mapping_of_UNO_and_Basic_Types
and subsection
https://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/DevGuide/ProUNO/Basic/Mapping_of_Simple_Types
for information about type ‘variant’.
In general you use ‘variant’ in all cases, where no direct mapping between UNO types and simple Basic types exists and a full qualified UNO type is not needed, or when the type is only available at runtime.
