Hello,
The following code works in a Form class module but not a
standard module:
Dim d1 As DateTime
Format(d1, "MMMM")
In a standard module I get a squigly line saying that an
argument has not been specified for parameter format...
So I tried this:
Format(GetType( DateTime), d1, "MMMM")
but now I get the error message that the type provided
must be an enum. Any suggestions appreciated how I could
resolve this. What do I have to enumerate?
Thanks,
Ron

What imports do you have in your form and in your module?

I have

I added Imports System.IO to the standard module, but that
did not help anything. Any ideas?

I left out that I was also importing
Imports Domino
When I commented that out then the squigly line went away
from the Format function. So there appears to be some
conflict with the Lotus Notes Domino Object Library and
the Format function. Is there a workaround for this? -----Original Message-----

Ron,
The "easiest" workaround is to favor DateTime.ToStri ng (& other overridden &
overloaded Object.ToString methods) over VB.Format.
Dim d1 As DateTime
Dim s As String = d1.ToString("MM MM")
The biggest advantage being is you can overload & override ToString in your
own classes, which the promotes consistency, if you cannot overload
VB.Format and still use an Format without qualification.
If you do need to use the VB runtime functions, you can use an Import Alias:
Import VB = Microsoft.Visua lBasic
Dim d1 As DateTime
Dim s As String = VB.Format(d1, "MMMM")
Hope this helps

Thank you very much. This is great information. I have
so much to learn about .Net. Your method is way better
than using the Format function.
No squigly lines or anything now :).
