Others have posted here about why certain function names don't work. It is suggested you can't use a reserved name.
The solution to one problem was posted as 'Well I don't know why' - just use a different function name.
I get that. Like the sample below, 'convert' does not work but _convert would.
But I would like some reference to know what the naming rules are. I've searched for days - any help appreciated.
Example:
Koen
I think I will shoot my code to TS. The reserved words list for Macros doesn't have the one I tried which is convert. Also tried conv_. Bellies up. If I get a response from TS that anyone could benefit from, I'll post it here. Thanks.
