Array of Objects (ERROR!)

[link9]

Hi --

I'm trying to create an array of objects. The number of objects needed varies from request to request, and so I assumed this would be the most efficient way to accomplish this. However, I'm getting a error that doesn't add up to me, seeing that the method I'm trying to call is explicitly a function, and not a sub(which is what the error calls it)? Anyway, take a look and post if you can help.

Class declaration excerpt:

class topThreeBox

    public currentN, previousN
    public currentTop, previousTop

    public function calcTop3Box(rs, strFieldName, intUpperBound, intLowerBound, intUpperValid, intLowerValid, strCurOrPrev)

***meat of function here***

        end function
end class

Declaration of array:

dim i, intNumOfQuestions
for i = 2 to 13
    if formObjectArray(i) then
        intNumOfQuestions = intNumOfQuestions + 1
    end if
next
dim topBoxArray(intNumOfQuestions)
set topBoxArray = new topThreeBox

Trying to call the aforementioned method:

topBoxArray(intTopSpot).calcTop3Box(currentRS, "Q1", 10, 1, 10, 8, "current")

Resulting Error Message:
Microsoft VBScript compilation error '800a0414'

Cannot use parentheses when calling a Sub

/heclientrg2000/calculateConcessions.inc, line 9

topBoxArray(intTopSpot).calcTop3Box(currentRS, "Q1", 10, 1, 10, 8, "current&quot


Thanks in advance for any help!

Hi Paul ,
try this one ..
''some variable
dim xyz
xyz=topBoxArray(intTopSpot).calcTop3Box(currentRS, "Q1", 10, 1, 10, 8, "current&quot
inplace of
topBoxArray(intTopSpot).calcTop3Box(currentRS, "Q1", 10, 1, 10, 8, "current&quot
in case of function u have to assign value return by function to some variable otherwise it treat function as sub.so another alternative would be it to use call like this ..
call topBoxArray(intTopSpot).calcTop3Box(currentRS, "Q1", 10, 1, 10, 8, "current&quot

I hope this will soleve your problem.
