Hi,
I am working on some legacy code and i encountered a strange call. Anyone know what this means?

Mean_Cell(1).Dark_diode.dbl_T = 0# ' These are set later.

in this code i am specifically wondering what the '0#' means. Is it some kind of a call or something, or maybe a variable? thanks
 
The pound-sign is a datatype flag. I think it means that the value is a Double, but I'm not sure, as I haven't used them in years.

chiph is correct it is a double datatype identifier:

Type Identifier Characters:

Integer %

Long = &

Decimal = @

Single = !

Double = #

String = $


Hope this helps.
