I'm looking for coding style opinions.
It looks to me like most VB/VBA coders use the command-style syntax for
calling subs or functions being treated as subs in a particular context ...
Foo "ABC", varDest
Occasionally, I see code using the Call syntax instead.
Call Foo("ABC", varDest)
I used to find that wierd, but now, I'm wondering if it isn't really the
superior style. Basically, I find myself starting to use named parameters
more (whenever it isn't blatantly obvious what the parameters must be by
looking at the call line), and I think Call reads easier in these cases. So,
do be consistent, I'm thinking I might just start using Call in all cases.
Foo Src:="ABC", Dest:=varDest
vs
Call Foo(Src:="ABC", Dest:=varDest)
Your thoughts?

I've always used Call. Seems more self-documenting to me.

In the VBA environment I find Call more similar to function calls, and
I like it for that reason.

If you are, indeed, Yu Hong Wang, MVP, continue this communication in the
private MVP newsgroup for Access. If I do not see you posting there, it will
confirm that you are a Don P Mellon sockpuppet or tagalong troll
impersonating Yu Hong Wang.
If I do see your message there (and the other MVPs who participate here will
see it, too) I will offer my apology.
However, given that MVPs who participate here actually answer questions,
instead of posting inane, off-topic messages, until then, G'day, Donnie.

You are not the MVP Yu Hong Wang as you claimed. Trolls and sockpuppets do
not get apologies, even for real slights, much less the imagined one that
you claim.
Donnie, don't you think that the MVPs have communication within their own
community?
You are really showing your ignorance, here, with this silly attempt at
"broken English" -- apparently you have not known the Chinese I have, most
of whom speak better English on a bad day than a Mellon-troll does on a good
day.
G'day, Donnie.

So, what's the prevailing opinion regarding the use of the "CALL" keyword?
I'm working with a third-party ASP application, adapting for our system, and
the CALL keyword is used everywhere. I've never used it, preferring instead
to just type the procedure name and parameters so:

Any thoughts on

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
