- 1). Open your Visual Basic file in Microsoft Visual Studio 6.0.
- 2). Locate the function you want to modify. It will have a format like:
Private Function myFunction (myVariable) As Boolean
`function code here
If (myVariable > 5) Then
myFunction = True
Else
myVariable = False
End If
End Function
Look for the "Function" keyword. The "End Function" statement marks the end of the function code. - 3). Modify the code inside the function by deleting part of the code and replacing it with your own. For example, swap the return values of the "If-Else" statement by modifying the code to:
Private Function myFunction (myVariable) As Boolean
`function code here
If (myVariable > 5) Then
myFunction = False
Else
myVariable = True
End If
End Function
If you modify the function parameters, "myVariable," make sure any line that calls the function sends the appropriate variable data type. - 4). Call the modified function by adding the following code in another function or subroutine:
Dim isLessThanFive As Boolean
isLessThanFive = myFunction(10) - 5). Save the VB file, compile and run the program to execute the modified function.
