Hello,

Could someone let me know whether its possible to pass User TYPES as function parameters please?

This is obviously a very fundamental feature requirement to do any kind of well structured code, but I seem to be having a lot of strange errors when i try to do it...

If it is possible, could you provide a small example that works to light the way?

Also, are there any issues with doing this from included files?

Thanks in advance.

I guess it would work. It should, if there's not a bug.

Lets see...


Yep, works fine for me. Is that what you mean by "pass User TYPES as function parameters"?

P.S. The wrong second text diplayed is not a bug with DBP.

No, sorry, I probably wasn't clear. What I mean't was to pass the whole type as one parameter.

until the ability is put in to pass back types it seems a little on the limited side

Yeah I've got the same problem for some time.

Parameter for "function name" do not match "type name" in program
or something. I've no idea what's going on
