Unable to return value from a user-defined function to the calling Test

[richagoyalk]

[/align]Using the Insert->Function Definition Generator i created a new function mysum with two variables var1 and var2 (both having passmode = By value)

I want this function to add the 2 variables and return the sum to the calling test.

code for the function:

Code:

Public Function mysum(var1, var2)
       ' TODO: add function body here
       sum=var1+var2
       msgbox(var1 & "+" & var2 & "=" & sum)
       return(sum)
End Function

TestCode:

Code:

sum=mysum(1,2)
Reporter.ReportEvent micPass, "ReportStepName Pass", "Sum=" &sum

Result:
I get a Type mismatch error. I tried all combinations of function definitions like: e.g. int Public Function mysum(var1, var2) but i still get the type mismatch error.
