Argument does not match forward declaration: <argument name>
You declared a function or sub with a Declare statement and then defined it with a Function or Substatement. Either of the following conditions could have caused the error:
- The data type of the indicated parameter in the procedure definition
is different from the corresponding parameter in the procedure declaration.
For example:
Declare Sub MySub(X As Integer) ' ... Sub MySub(X As Double) ' Illegal because X was previously ' ... ' declared to be of type Integer End Sub
Change the data type of the indicated parameter in the declaration or the definition of the procedure so that they match.
- The data type of the indicated parameter matches the data type
of the corresponding parameter in the procedure declaration, but the
parameters represent different kinds of data structure. For example:
Declare Function MyFunction(X() As Integer) As Integer ' ... Function MyFunction(X As Integer) As Integer ' Illegal because X is a ' ... ' scalar variable but ' X() is an array End Function
Change the parameter specification in the declaration or the definition of the procedure so that the two match.
