Passing Function a Variable

[Zeta]

Why do I get a compile error on the line
"ImportTextFile (.FoundFiles(i),TableName)"
In the first function? I am trying to pass the second
function two arguements. It works fine if I remove
the "TableName" arguement.

Thanks

Here is the getPath function that is called....Sorry

Public Function getPath( _
Optional InitialDir As String, _
Optional FilterMessage As String = "Choose Folder
Only", _
Optional FilterSkelton As String = "*|*", _
Optional File As String = "Folders Only", _
Optional Title As String = "Use the Open Button to
Select") As String
Dim CommDlgError As Long
Dim OFN As OPENFILENAME
If Len(InitialDir) = 0 Then InitialDir = CurDir$()
With OFN
.lStructSize = Len(OFN)
.lpstrFilter = FilterMessage & vbNullChar &
FilterSkelton & String(2, vbNullChar)
.lpstrFile = File & String(MAX_PATH - Len(File),
vbNullChar)
.nMaxFile = MAX_PATH
.lpstrInitialDir = InitialDir & vbNullChar
.lpstrTitle = Title
.lpstrFileTitle = String(MAX_PATH, vbNullChar)
.nMaxFileTitle = MAX_PATH
.Flags = OFN_HIDEREADONLY Or OFN_NOCHANGEDIR Or
OFN_SHAREAWARE
If GetOpenFileName(OFN) <> 0 Then
' .lpstrFileTitle conatins file name only
If FilterSkelton = "*|*" Then
getPath = Left(.lpstrFile, .nFileOffset)
Else
getPath = .lpstrFile
End If
Else
CommDlgError = CommDlgExtendedError
' if not just a cancel
If CommDlgError <> 0 Then
MsgBox "Common Dialog Error # " &
CommDlgError _
& vbCrLf _
& vbCrLf _
& "Consult Common Dialog Documumentation" _
& vbCrLf _
& "(in MSDN Library)" _
& vbCrLf _
& vbCrLf _
& "for meaning.", _
vbCritical, _
"Cyriv Solutions"
End If
End If
End With
End Function

Try to change name of variable: TableName in first function
And test for empty string. If You select Cancel in
InputBox, TableName = "". Maybe this causes an error.

I tried that with no luck, but the problem is a syntax
error, compiler is "expecting an =" or something to that
effect.

Got it, the parenthesis were screwing it up.
