What is the difference between:

Dim a%
The percent symbol is ancient BASIC syntax for "varname is an integer".
"The last character of the name can be a dollar sign ($) to indicate a string variable or a percent sign (%) to indicate an integer variable."
This has been around for a very long time in the history of the BASIC family, and is supported in Visual Basic.NET (although it is no longer recommended - it can be rather obscure, as you have found.)
