i'd like to!

type mine
x
y
endtype

bob as mine
modtype(bob,1,2)
end

function modtype(t as mine,x,y)
t.x=x
t.y=y
endfunction

wouldn't it be nice?

in fact that function declaration above compiles just fine; however DBP flags the "modtype(bob,1,2)" as it doesn't like me to not put the name of the type without accessing one of its variables.
i'm looking at yooooou!

ya know the type and globals aren't in the manual - they maybe simple copies of the types from DarkEdit...
if this is the case then they are globals, don't need to declare them in the function.

so just setting it up as such... like
function modtype(x,y)
mine.x = x
mine.y = y
endfunction

as you only really need to input the nessary values you need input, and not the entire value structure.
that make any sense?

Holy jumping mother of god NOOOO!!!...

DrakeX, I had a discussion a week (or so) ago about passing UDTs as parameters, and having functions return UDTs... This apparently does not work. Raven Vageta hit it pretty close. DBPro apparently only allows the use of UDTs globally.
