Variable as a reference or value to a function

[DSMan195276]

If you want to pass by value, just use a different type than defined in sub or function.

And then why does it work with the "Sub"?

It's exactly like bplus said. In the Sub you wrote this line:

Code: (Select All)

  eingabe = eingabe + 3

But in the Function you wrote this line:

Code: (Select All)

  AlsWert = eingabe + 3

The two pieces of code do fundamentally different things, because only the Sub actually assigns a new value to

eingabe

, the Function version leaves it alone. If you use the same line from the Sub in your Function then it should work as expected. Try changing it to this:

Code: (Select All)

  eingabe = eingabe + 3
  AlsWert = eingabe

It returns the exact same value as before, but also modifies

eingabe

to be the new value.
