The foll is an extract from the example taken from the vfp help file for PCOUNT()

FUNCTION getavg
PARAMETERS gnPara1,gnPara2,gnPara3,gnPara4,gnPara5, ;
gnPara6,gnPara7,gnPara8,gnPara9
IF PCOUNT( ) = 0
RETURN 0
ENDIF
gnResult = 0
FOR gnCount = 1 to PARAMETERS( )
gcCompare = 'gnPara' +(STR(gnCount,1))
gnResult = gnResult + EVAL(gcCompare)
ENDFOR
gnResult = gnResult / (gnCount - 1)
RETURN gnResult

Maybe something like this will help?

.OR.

Pass the parameters as an array and then get the values from the array:

DIME a_temp(10)
a_temp(1) = "para1"
a_temp(2) = "para2"
etc.

=myfunction(@a_temp)

Function myfunction
PARAMETERS myarray

FOR counter = 1 to ALEN(myarray)
passed1 = myarray(counter)
ENDFOR

or such code...
