| Argument Description |
| usertype A name given to the user-defined data type. Follows |
| the same rules as a BASIC variable name. |
| elementname The name of an element of the user-defined data type. |
| Follows the same rules as a BASIC variable name. |
| Cannot be the name of an array. |
| typename May be any of the following BASIC data types: INTEGER, |
| LONG, SINGLE, DOUBLE, fixed-length string (see note |
| below), or user-defined type. |
| |
| Note: Strings in user types must be fixed-length strings. String |
| lengths are indicated by an asterisk and a numeric constant. |
| For example, the following line defines an element named Keyword |
| in a user-defined type as a string with length 40: |
| |
| Keyword AS STRING * 40 |
| |
| A user-defined type must be declared in a TYPE declaration before |
| it can be used in the program. Although a user-defined type can only |
| be declared in the module-level code, you may declare a variable to |
| be of a user-defined type anywhere in the module, even in a SUB |
| or FUNCTION. |
| |
| Use the DIM, REDIM, COMMON, STATIC, or SHARED statements to declare a |
| variable to be of a user-defined type. |
