By default they are private. But I usually declare all variables and their scope explicitly (In VB I allways have Option Explicit set).
If it would be a form, you can declare your variables as local and this would work (though it's strange). In prg seems to be another story, so you better declare them as private. Actually, I have a vague idea, why we can use local in forms and should use private in programs, but it doesn't matter, we can just take it as a fact.
