The number and types of
arguments
must match those expected. This error has the following causes and solutions:
Incorrect number of arguments. Supply all necessary arguments. For example, the
Left
function requires two arguments; the first representing the character string being operated on, and the second representing the number of characters to return from the left side of the string. Because neither argument is optional, both must be supplied.
Omitted argument isn't optional. An argument can only be omitted from a call to a user-defined
procedure
if it was declared
Optional
in the procedure declaration. Either supply the argument in the call or declare the
parameter
Optional
in the definition.
For additional information, select the item in question and press F1 (in Windows) or HELP (on the Macintosh).
