I have a function IsModified which returns Boolean.

By default is it possible to return the value as True. (like how we specify
default value for parameters Optional Flag as Boolean = True )

Something like below.

Public function IsModified() as Boolean = True

End Sub

Hi,

Public function IsModified () as Boolean
IsModified = true

...
if 4711>x then IsModified=false
End Sub

Store the value of IsModified in a private var;

private m_IsModified as boolean

Private Sub Class_Initialize()
m_IsModified = true
End Sub

Public function IsModified() as Boolean
IsModified = m_IsModified
End Sub

Now if no work is done then IsModified will return true.
If a method is called that means you want to return false
then update m_IsModified to False.
