from the manual,

Function WriteDictionary(Argument As Dictionary, FilePathOrURL As String) As Boolean

But use here,

Code: Select all

WriteDictionary(AppConfig, ConfigFile)

No error's reported and no problems but it isn't correct.

it isn't correct

What is 'it'?
Isn't the data written as expected, or what?

I've seen that Functions (sometimes/always) need a target for the returnvalue, like:
Dim dummy As Boolean
dummy = WriteDictionary(AppConfig, ConfigFile)

I've seen that Functions (sometimes/always) need a target for the returnvalue

That is what i mean in this case.
I use it without a returnvalue and the compiler isn't complaining.
The function itself works further as expected.

This is not a bug - it is a feature . You may not use a return value.

You may not use a return value.

But Q7B isn't complaining if i do use a return value
