Cannot use parentheses when calling a Sub

[onressy]

can't seem to get rid of this nasty:

Microsoft VBScript compilation error '800a0414'
Cannot use parentheses when calling a Sub

line 263:

Response.Write( Replace(objRS("FirstName")), ",", "") ) & " " & ( Replace(objRS("LastName")), ",", "") )	' Name

Any suggestions? need more info?

Count your parentheses. In particular, replace function takes three arguments, replace(x,y,z). You have replace(x),y,z...

 

[QatQat]

response.write replace(objRS("FirstName"), ",", "") & " " & replace(objRS("LastName"), ",", "")

this does the job.

cheers

Life is what happens when you are making other plans.

Just to clarify on this error...

When calling a subroutine byitself, you cannot use parentheses. ie:

response.write ("HELLO") <<-- WRONG

response.write "HELLO" <<-- CORRECT

this is true with any subroutine..

ie:

sub CallMe(Somevar as string)

 response.write "You called the CALLME Subroutine."

end sub

The correct way to call this would be:

CallMe "This Sub"

Cheers,
