I just ran into this bug like a race car doing 150 MPH and hitting the wall. What I got is a macro that will open a form based on the event sent by the button. But being a good programmer I also call it from other methods using just a form name, therefore both arguments, the event param and the form name string are both optional. The issue I have is when I call it to open a form by a name string in stead of an event object I am getting an "Object Variable not set" error. I understand this is due to this bug as it is not marking the first argument as missing. This may not be a bug either, I was supprised that all arguments can be optional, most other languages require at least the first argument to be required. At any rate if it is a bug I would love to see it fixed because I hate redundant code. lol Thanks in advance. Here is my method declaration. Sub OpenForm(Optional oEvent as object, Optional sFormName as string) The idea is that it will open a form based on the event that a button click would pass in, or by a name passed directly to it from some other method.</pre> </div> <hr> You are receiving this mail because: <ul> <li>You are the assignee for the bug.</li> </ul> </body> </html>
