Declare Static Variable Statement

The Declare Static Variable statement declares a variable and allocates storage space for this variable. It does not return a value.

A variable that you declare with the Static statement retains a value as long as the code runs. The format you use is exactly the same as the format you use with the Declare Variable statement. For more information, see Declare Variable Statement.

To make a procedure variable static, you can use the Static keyword in the definition of this procedure. For more information, see Create Function Method and Create Subroutine Method.
