如何测试是否提供了可选参数？

If IsMissing(arg) Then ...

Use IsMissing:

If IsMissing(arg) Then
MsgBox "Parameter arg not passed"
End If

However, if I remember correctly, this doesn’t work when giving a default for the argument, and in any case it makes using the default argument rather redundant.

You can use the IsMissing() Function. But this one only works with the Variant datatype.

Sub func(Optional s As Variant)
If IsMissing(s) Then
' ...
End If
End Sub

If you are using a string or number variable you can check the value of the variable. For example:

Function func (Optional Str as String, Optional Num as Integer)


If Str = "" Then
MsgBox "NOT SENT"
End If


If Num = 0 Then
MsgBox "NOT SENT"
End If


End Function

This allows you to use non-variant variables.

You can use something like:

function func(optional vNum as integer:=&HFFFF) '&HFFFF value that is NEVER set on vNum


If vNum = &HFFFF Then
MsgBox "NOT SENT"
End If


End Function

With a variant I would use the NZ function:

Function func (Optional ByRef arg As Variant = Nothing)
If nz ( arg, 0 ) = 0 Then
MsgBox "NOT SENT"
End If
End Function

It can be used with other data types too, just keep in mind that Zero counts as neither Null nor Zero-Length, so nz(0,"") still returns 0.

"IsMissing"...Figured there would have to be a way. Thanks all!

SQL has a function, In(), where you can pass multiple arguments to see if the target value is in the list. I've always liked that as a solution, so here's my take on that, hope it helps:

Public Function IsIn(ByVal TestVal, ByVal VersusVal1, _
Optional ByVal VersusVal2, Optional ByVal VersusVal3, _
Optional ByVal VersusVal4, Optional ByVal VersusVal5, _
Optional ByVal VersusVal6, Optional ByVal VersusVal7, _
Optional ByVal VersusVal8, Optional ByVal VersusVal9, _
Optional ByVal VersusVal10, Optional ByVal VersusVal11, _
Optional ByVal VersusVal12, Optional ByVal VersusVal13, _
Optional ByVal VersusVal14, Optional ByVal VersusVal15, _
Optional ByVal VersusVal16, Optional ByVal VersusVal17, _
Optional ByVal VersusVal18, Optional ByVal VersusVal19, _
Optional ByVal VersusVal20) As Boolean


Dim CheckVals(1 To 20) as Variant
VersusVals(1) = VersusVal1
VersusVals(2) = VersusVal2
VersusVals(3) = VersusVal3
VersusVals(4) = VersusVal4
VersusVals(5) = VersusVal5
VersusVals(6) = VersusVal6
VersusVals(7) = VersusVal7
VersusVals(8) = VersusVal8
VersusVals(9) = VersusVal9
VersusVals(10) = VersusVal10
VersusVals(11) = VersusVal11
VersusVals(12) = VersusVal12
VersusVals(13) = VersusVal13
VersusVals(14) = VersusVal14
VersusVals(15) = VersusVal15
VersusVals(16) = VersusVal16
VersusVals(17) = VersusVal17
VersusVals(18) = VersusVal18
VersusVals(19) = VersusVal19
VersusVals(20) = VersusVal20


On Error Goto 0


IsIn = False


For x = 1 To 20
If Not IsMissing(VersusVals(x)) Then
If TestVal = VersusVals(x) Then
IsIn = True
Exit For
End If
End If
Next x


End Function

So, that's obviously why I needed "IsMissing"; doesn't work without it.

Most of these refer to the variant type, or test if a value is blank.

However, sometimes you want to check if a range, workbook, worksheet, or other type of object is not passed, without checking things like sheetnames.

In that case:

DesiredRange is Nothing

Returns a boolean. For example:

    If DestinationRange Is Nothing Then
MsgBox "Need a destination range when importing data"
Else
'We're happy
End If

"IsMissing(var)" for variants
"StrPtr(var) = 0" for strings

For other data types there's no perfect solution, you can only test for their default values, therefore not distinguishing between a not passed argument and a passed argument valued as default.
