functions

[Rudy]

is there a way to have a default value for a function so that if no values are passed, the function uses the default one

heres what im talking about in c++
nameoffunction (int x, int y = 0)

so if u call the function with only one parameter, the function will use 0 for y

i want the same thing but for VB

yes just do something like:

Private Function func(Optional num As Integer = 1)
 
End Function

The optional parameter must come after normal parameters.
So to pass two integers, the second of which being optional, you would :

Function nameOfFunction(ByVal x As Long, Optional y As Long = 0)
 
End Function
