Important Notice
The pages on this site contain documentation for very old MS-DOS software,
purely for historical purposes.
If you're looking for up-to-date documentation, particularly for programming,
you should not rely on the information found here, as it will be woefully
out of date.
Invalid outside SUB, FUNCTION, or DEF FN
■ Visual Basic has encountered a statement that is not
allowed in module-level code. For example:
• EXIT SUB, EXIT FUNCTION, or EXIT DEF statements are not
allowed in module-level code.
• Executable statements are not allowed at the module level
of a form module.
■ Possible solution:
• Move highlighted statement to a SUB, FUNCTION, or DEF FN
function.
■ If you need additional help, move the cursor to a keyword
and press F1 to open the Help window.
