If the argument is input argument, then you can still put Left, Mid to it.

If the argument is input argument, then you can still put Left, Mid to it.

<div>
<blockquote>
<b>DoSometing(Left([LastName,<wbr />20))</b>
</blockquote>
Your example is not passing the <b>Left</b> function to the DoSomething() function. You are passing the result of a <b>Left</b> function invocation.
</div>


> DoSometing(Left([LastName,20))

Your example is not passing the Left function to the DoSomething() function. You are passing the result of a Left function invocation.

<div>
<div class="content wysiwyg-content">
I assume a Function such as LEFT can not be passed as an Argument for a Function. &nbsp;Such as<br />
DoSometing(Left([LastName,<wbr />20))<br />
<br />
Thus when I call a function and pass arguments a Function can not be used as an argement even if the result matches the type of the called procedure such as a string variable.

Passing the MID function as an Argument

Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) enables building user-defined functions (UDFs), automating processes and accessing Windows API and other low-level functionality through dynamic-link libraries (DLLs). VBA is closely related to Visual Basic and uses the Visual Basic Runtime Library, but it can normally only run code within a host application rather than as a standalone program. It can, however, be used to control one application from another via OLE Automation. VBA is built into most Microsoft Office applications.

Microsoft Excel topics include formulas, formatting, VBA macros and user-defined functions, and everything else related to the spreadsheet user interface, including error messages.

Microsoft Excel

Microsoft Office is an integrated suite of applications that includes Outlook, Word, Excel, Access, PowerPoint, Visio and InfoPath, along with a number of tools to assist in making the individual components work together. Coding within and between the projects is done in Visual Basic for Applications, known as VBA.
