Any way to pass an optional array?

[Ryan]

The code below gives me an error of "expression expected" at the first curly
brace. Thanks for any help.

Public Sub PopulateForm(Op tional ByVal myID As Integer = -1, Optional ByVal
myRecipients() As Integer = {-1})

RE: Any way to pass an optional array?

it doesnt like your arguement because its expecting a declaration with the
{}, so try changing it to this

Private Sub z(Optional ByVal arr() As Integer = Nothing)


hope that helps

From the docs ('Parameter List'):

defaultvalue
Required for Optional parameters. Any constant or constant expression
that evaluates to the data type of the parameter. If the type is Object,
or a class, interface, array, or structure, the default value can only
be Nothing.
