is "params" working as expected

[Claire]

Hi, either I'm going mad or is params not working anymore in VS 2005?

I have function as follows
public tableEquipment[] ReadEquipment(bool ReadImages, params Int64[]
RecIDs)
{
}

if I call "tableEquipment equipment = myDatabase.ReadEquipment(false,
RecID);"
I'm getting a compiler error that "Error 1 Cannot implicitly convert type
Database.tableEquipment[]' to 'Database.tableEquipment' "

That's nothing to do with the parameters - it's to do with the return
value. The method returns an array, and you're trying to use it as if
it returns a single value.

omg, ignore me, brain didnt compute what the error message was telling me.
Reboot brain!
(should have typed "tableEquipment[] equipment =
myDatabase.ReadEquipment(false,
RecID);")
