vba check if specific bits are set in long integer code example

Example 1: excel vba are bits set in long

'Fast VBA function to test if specific bits are set

'Bits are numbered from 0 to 31, so the first (least significant) bit
'is bit 0.

'Note: bits can be specified in any order.
'Note: any number of bits can be specified in one call.
