OK...this is probably something boneheaded and simple, but I haven't posted any problems in a while, and my head feels like it is going to explode from behind my eye sockets, so please bare with me... I have been asked to do some alterations/additions to a program that I wrote, a little over a year ago. What I am working on now is the simple addition of a new report. I usually leave some 'reserved' buttons on my Reports Menu because they always want more reports, so the buttons are already there. On my reports menu, I have hidden fields to accomodate a couple of the different reports. These fields become visible, depending on the report chosen--I have one that uses 'Start Date' and an 'End Date' fields, and another that uses a drop-down to choose an employee. These also each have a cancel button, and a proceed button. After you cancel or proceed, the main buttons, which were disabled, when one was chosen, are re-enabled, and the used fields become invisible again. This report that I have added is also dependent on a starting and ending date, so I used the same function to do the button magic (i.e. disappear, reappear, setfocus, enable, etc.). However I needed an extra IF statement to decipher which of two buttons was chosen. So I added the if statement and added a parameter to go with it: Function SeeDateInfo(Mode As Boolean) has become Function SeeDateInfo(Mode As Boolean, Button As Integer) but when I change the function call to add another parameter, the help tip comes up correctly--it tells me what it is looking for--but I get an error: Compile Error ... Expected: = What in the hey am I doing wrong?! Thanks for the help...now and in the past! I gotta fly now to get my daughter's tooth yanked...arrrrghtt!!! btw...A97 John W Clark
