DEFINT                   Define Variable(s) as Integer

 DEFINT letter[-letter] [,letter [-letter]]...

    Declares one or more variables to be of type integer.

   ----------------------------------------------------------------------

      Notes:    All variable names beginning with any of the specified
                letters (case-insensitive) will be integer, unless a type-
                identifier character (#, !, or $) is used to override the
                DEFINT declaration.

                The DEFINT declaration must be read by the compiler before
                any statements in which the declared variables are
                assigned or used. The compiler reads from beginning to
                end, without regard for execution path.

                You cannot avoid a DEFINT declaration by direction the
                execution path around it.

                DEFINT statements do not affect symbolic constants.
