Why can't the VBA Me keyword access private procedures in its own module?

Question

I just discovered that the Me keyword cannot access private procedures even when they are inside its own class model.

Take the following code in Class1:

Answer 1

Public Function Fight() As String
'performs a round of attacks i.e. each character from both sides performs an attack
'returns a scripted version of the outcomes of the round

'check if buccaneers are all dead
If mBuccaneers.aliveCount > 0 Then

    'check if any hostiles are alive
    If mHostiles.aliveCount > 0 Then

        'check we have some buccaneers
        If mBuccaneers.count = 0 Then
            Fight = "There are no buccaneers. Load or create some buccaneers"
        Else
            If mHostiles.count = 0 Then
                'can't fight
                Fight = "There are no hostiles to fight. Generate some hostiles"
            Else
                mScript = ""
                Call GroupAttack(mBuccaneers, mHostiles)
                Call GroupAttack(mHostiles, mBuccaneers)
                Fight = mScript
            End If
        End If

    Else 'hostiles are all dead
        Fight = "Hostiles are all dead. Generate a new set of hostiles"
    End If

Else
    Fight = "Buccaneers are all dead :(. Suggest building or loading a new buccaneer group"
End If
End Function

Uses the private class method GroupAttack by using the Call statement

Private Sub GroupAttack(attackersGroup As clsGroup, defendersGroup As clsGroup)
'implements the attack of one group on another

Dim victimNo As Integer
Dim randomNumber As Integer
Dim attacker As clsCharacter
Dim damage As Integer
Dim defender As clsCharacter
Randomize

For Each attacker In attackersGroup.members

    'check if attacker is still alive
    If attacker.health > 0 Then

        'check if any defenders are still alive because there's no point attacking dead defenders
        If defendersGroup.aliveCount > 0 Then

            'do some damage on a defender
            If defendersGroup.count > 0 Then
                'choose a random hostile
                victimNo = Int(((Rnd() * defendersGroup.aliveCount) + 1))

                'find an alive victim
                memberid = 0
                j = 0
                Do While j < victimNo
                    memberid = memberid + 1
                    If defendersGroup.members(memberid).health > 0 Then
                        j = j + 1
                    End If
                Loop
                'reset our victimno to the live victim
                victimNo = memberid

                damage = defendersGroup.character(victimNo).attack(attacker.strength)

                If damage <> 0 Then  'attacker hit
                    mScript = mScript & attacker.name & " hits " & _
                    defendersGroup.character(victimNo).name & " for " & damage & " damage"

                    If defendersGroup.character(victimNo).health = 0 Then
                        mScript = mScript & " and kills " & defendersGroup.character(victimNo).name
                    End If
                    mScript = mScript & vbCrLf

                Else 'attacker missed
                    mScript = mScript & attacker.name & " missed " & defendersGroup.character(victimNo).name & vbCrLf
                End If

            End If

        End If

    End If

Next attacker   
End Sub

Thats all you need to do ,works like a charm
