Private
Specifies a procedure having internal linkage
Private Sub procedure_name [Overload] [cdecl|stdcall|pascal] [Alias "external_name"] [([parameter_list])] [Constructor [priority]] [Static] [Export]
Private Function procedure_name [Overload] [cdecl|stdcall|pascal] [Alias "external_name"] [([parameter_list])] As return_type [Static] [Export]
In procedure definitions, Private specifies that a procedure has internal linkage, meaning it's name is not visible to external modules.
The Option Private statement allows procedures to be defined with internal linkage by default.
