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:
myProcedure parm1, parm2
Any thoughts on
call myProcedure(par m1, parm2)
...?

It's just different syntax and allows you to use parens around your
parameters, if you like that style. See http://www.aspfaq.com/2115
You can see the impact on ByRef/ByVal in http://www.aspfaq.com/2488
Neither is "better" IMHO, so I'm not sure what you're after.

Well, my point was that I don't know what you mean by "better"... faster,
more accurate, less code, more common...
Hey hey hey...I didn't say "better." But, if I had to pose my question more
specifically, I guess I was asking what's more common. If there just
happened to be something about the way the parser handles it differently,
I'd accept that too, but it was really just a request for opinions.

I always use Call subName. I like seeing Call, because it's much more
obvious as to what's going on than just seeing some random work sitting
there by itself. I also like to use parentheses.
Call theThing(arg1, arg2)
theThing arg1, arg2
The former looks much better imo.

I never use call unless I'm on my cell phone or unless I'm replying in
response to a NG post where someone has it in their code.

I don't know about prevailing opinions, but I personally prefer it. It
simply makes the code more readable, IMO.
Then again, I use correct capitalization and parentheses for logic when I
write VBScript, so I'm a bit of a kook.
FWIW, microsoft.publi c.scripting.vbs cript might represent a better barometer
for this.

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 ...

Occasionally, I see code using the Call syntax instead.
