Small question:
Excel macro:
public myfunction(byref data as variant) as boolean
do some stuff that modifies data
myfunction=true
end function
sub mycode()
dim xx as variant, x as variant
xx = some value
05 myfunction (xx)
10 stop
15 x = myfunction(xx)
20 stop
end sub
In the locals window at line 10, xx still contains some value but at
line 20 xx has been changed.
I've done some digging through the installed documentation (Office 2003)
and see nothing that explains why. Can someone point me towards
relevant documentation?
It seems that I first tried
05 myfunction xx
but the compiler didn't like that - it returned "argument not optional."
After changing to the line 15 syntax my macro is doing what I want, and
I'm a happy camper; just curious.
