Hi, I'm new to db pro programming, and, even though I have already learned many things, there is ONE thing that stops me from going further with my "research":functions
I read somewhere about them and I understood, just like the guys at the dark basic pro threads, that they are sub-programs that execute certain things.
But could anyone explain everything about them in detail, just like for a beginner that doesn't understand anything about them?

I also hope I'm not making anyone mad with this post

Sure, fuctions basicly are your own command made up of other commands. So say if i wanted ot make a simple function that printed hi on the screen i would simply put:

Function HI()
Print "Hi!"
end function

Now it wont run this code becouse we have it out side are loop. But its easy enough to call. As you can see the Function HI() this im simply saying call my function HI()

So when ever we need to call it we can simple put:

HI()

anyware in are code, well most places.

And thats the basics of functions.
