Operators and Operands in Excel VBA – The Assignment Operator:

If it is a numeric variable the computer will initiate 0 by default, if it is a string it will initiate an empty space. You can initiate your own value to variable by using assignment operator ‘=‘

Example:

Sub sbExampleAssignmentOperator()

'Variable Declaration
    Dim intRank As Integer

'Initiating
    intRank = 500
'Here = is called as an assignment operator,
'it will assign the value 500 into intRank

'Showing
    MsgBox intRank
'If you check the variable now,
'you can see the 500 is assigned to that.

End Sub

The Line Continuation Operator: _

You can use space + underscore to split a single statement into more than one line

Sub sbExampleLineConnector()

'Variable Declaration
    Dim intRank As Integer

'Initiating
    intRank = _
    500
'We have splitted a single line into
'two by using space+underscore

'Showing
    MsgBox intRank

End Sub

The Double Quotes: “”
