Explicit initialization is not permitted with multiple variables declared with a single type specifier
Initialization is not allowed when multiple variables are declared on the same line.
Error ID: BC30671
To correct this error
Declare and initialize each item separately.
Declare multiple items together and then initialize each item; for example:
Dim x, b, i As Integer x = 9 : b = 9 : i = 9 ' ":" is the same as a new line.
