You certainly aren't contributing any relevant information that futhers the discussion. Instead, you are just dropping in insulting babble, when none is warranted. There's a word for people that do that in newsgroups. I'll leave it to you to figure out what that word is. -Scott

Whether you agree or not means nothing to me because you are a not important and your presence here is not required. I was commenting solely on what you actually said, which was simply "it is not used in VB.Net". For you to amplify your statement now, as you have just done, to the phrase "not used by the development platform", which is not quite the same thing, is just a bit of duckin' and divin' on your part. At least be honest enough to stick by what you actually said, instead of performing all this dishonest duckin' and divin'. Quite simply, the Call keyword is available in VB.Net, and it can therefore be used in VB.Net, and you are not personally qualified to say whether or not it actually has been so used. Personally, judging solely by the actual contents of the OP's very first post on this subject, it is not at all clear whether he is using VB6 or something else, because the code snippet he posted will work both in VB6 and in VB.Net. However, the fact that his very first post was made to what is considered to be the Classic VB newsgroup would initially indicate that he is either using using Classic VB, and probably VB6, or that he is using something else that has been dishonestly been given the VB name and he has become confused by the Micro$oft lies. Going contrary to that, however, is the fact that according to the times shown here he made that post at 20:21 on 4th October and three and a half hours later he received a response telling him how to do it in VB6. He then received a further response at 03:00 hrs the following day advising him that VB.Net questions should be posted on the VB.Net newsgroup. Then, about seven hours after that second response, despite the fact that a VB6 solution had already been posted, the OP posted exactly the same question (without the code extract) to the VB.Net group. So unless the OP did not actually read any of the responses it would appear that even after being given a VB6 solution to his problem, he later posted the same question to the VB.Net group, having been told where it was, which would tend to indicate that me might be using VB.Net. So, going by the two contradictory and yet perfectly rational judgements outlined above, it is not really clear whether the OP is using VB6 or VB.Net. The code snippet he posted will work in either, and such code snippets have actually been used in both of them. Personally I have an open mind on the matter. The one thing I am definite about though, and the one thing that is becoming ever more clear, is the fact that you are a troll, Scotty. Mike

We just want to know whether you are a young troll or an old troll. Mike

I once spent a complete hour to sort that out and the effects are subtle. Here goes. Private Function DoThing(byref value as long) as long Dim va;ue as long ' some code value = 2 * value DoThing = value End function dim lngValue as Long, lngPassed as Long lngPassed = DoThing lngValue lngValue will have the new value, same as lngPassed lngPassed = DoThing(lngValue) ==Note parenthesis lngValue is now passed ByVal ! Call will prevent getting the value of lngPassed but will have the same effect as previously. Call DoThing( lngValue ) parenthesis are needed. This is still passed ByRef. Call DoThing(( lngValue )) note the double parenthesis:. This is now passed ByVal. Hope that helps. ===================================================== 90 people get the swine flu and everybody wants to wear a mask.
