Hi everybody,

I could not find 'helpstring' in Help. I also did a very quick google search and it didn't bring an answer.

I'm trying to use this method in a class:
procedure ModifyPass(tcSalesPoint as string, ;
		tcOperator as string, ;
		tcWhichKey as string, ;
		tcPrefix as string, ;
		tnPassNo as double, ;
		tcFieldName as string, ;
		tvFieldValue as Variant, ;
		tcPhysLocation as string, ;
		tcPassNo as string,
		tlOverwriteNumeric as Boolean ;
		) as string ;
		helpstring "Modify a field in a pass record and log the change. Numeric changes are added or subtracted to the existing value unless tlOverwriteNumeric is set to true, all others are overwritten."
	
I added a new tlOverwriteNumeric parameter today and modified the helpstring. It now doesn't compile. I don't know what exactly is wrong here, can you suggest?

Thanks in advance.
If it's not broken, fix it until it is.
