Specifying the Data Type

You do one of the following to specify the data type for the value that a method returns:

• End the method name with a type character.

• Use the following clause:

  As funcType
  

Note the following:

• If you do not specify a type, then the method that the Declare Procedure statement declares defaults to the data type variant.

• To use a record argument, you use an As clause and a type that is already defined with the Type statement.

• To use an array argument, you use empty parentheses after the argument. You do not specify an array dimension in the Declare Procedure statement.
