Default Passing a Control as an Argument

Andy,

I have to go now, so I will read any reply you send tomorrow morning.

Many Thanks

I changed it to a sub, to see if I could use the parameters passed to get
the result, but I get the same
problem.

'Calling
Dim stage1Result As Boolean
pcm.ownerValidationReport ws, we, drpCells.Value,
ScheduleVerbIntegrety, False, True, progress, stage1Result
If Not stage1Result Then


'Called
Public Sub ownerValidationReport(weekStart As Integer, weekEnd As Integer,
cell As String, validation As validationType, includeSuccesses As Boolean,
loggingContinued As Boolean, ByRef progressLabel As msForms.Label, result
As Boolean)

Dim spreadSheetYear As Integer
Dim allWeeks As Boolean
Dim thereWereErrors As Boolean

So what do the function ownerValidationReport argument list look like?
And do the arguments you are passing in match those the function is
expecting?

Cheers
Andy

Unfotunately, I get the same error message, as soon as the damn control
is inside those brackets it refuses to work. Progress is the name of the
Label in the form.PCM is the object whioch contains the function I am
trying to pass the Label to

Dim stage1Result As Boolean
stage1Result = pcm.ownerValidationReport(ws, we, drpCells.Value,
ScheduleVerbIntegrety, False, True, progress)


Thanks for your help

If it is a function you can use the brackets if you assign the returned
value to a variable.

Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()

Dim c1 As New Class1
Dim blnResult As Boolean

c1.addStuff Label1
blnResult = c1.addStuff(Label1)

End Sub

'Class code

Public Function addStuff(ByRef myLabel As MSForms.Label)

myLabel.Caption = "Stuff"

addStuff = True

End Function

Actually, this is still an issue because I am actually going to need to
pass this to a function and I cant get away with removing the brackets
?

Lose the brackets around the passed argument.
The brackets are actually causing the default value of the label,
which is the caption property, to be passed rather than the object.

Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
Dim c1 As New Class1

c1.addStuff Label1

End Sub

Type mismatch .....


...Calling Form.......
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
Dim c1 As New Class1

c1.addStuff (Label1)

End Sub


in class1 . . . . . . . . .

Public Sub addStuff(ByRef myLabel As MSForms.Label)

myLabel.Caption = "Stuff"

End Sub

Hi,


If by form you mean userform then the object type would be
MSForms.Label

Cheers

Hi,

I have a form with a label control on it. I want to pass this as an
argument to a function which does a test. The problem is that this
gives me a type mismatch on this form which calls it. If you hover
the mouse cursor over the argument which is passed to the function
from the calling method in the form, it returns a string value.

Any IDeas ?

Public Function MyFunction( myLabel as Label ) As Boolean

myLabel.Caption = "SomeString"

MyFunction = True

End Function
