Instead of:

Dim s as String

Use:

Global s As String

Are you asking how to make a variable negative? Just do:
i = -1

If you want a sum then:
Sum = Num1 + Num2 + Num3

Jm,

To declare a global variabe use:
Public x as Integer 'Global for project
Private x as Integer 'Global for current module only.

To declare a signed number: There is no such thing as an unsigned number
in VB. All longs, integers, doubles are signed.
Dim x as Integer
x = -5

To sum numbers just add them: x = a + b + c
