Hi all, can someone please point out what Im doing wrong here.

Ive read overloaded functions work fine, and I think Ive got
it right according to the manual, so what am I doing wrong?

If I use ANY but the first declared function, I get error
Quote:
'PopupMenu'. Wrong number/type of parameters

at compile time.

Code:
//Declares/Prototypes
void PopupMenu(PANEL* *ReturnPanel, STRING* SourceData, var layer);  //Want to keep this "default" if I can
void PopupMenu(PANEL* *ReturnPanel, STRING* SourceData, var layer, var pos_x, var pos_y);
void PopupMenu(PANEL* *ReturnPanel, STRING* SourceData, var layer, var pos_x, var pos_y, STRING* font);

//Usage  (FAILS unless I kill the first two prototypes and stick with the third)
PANEL* tmpPanel;
...
PopupMenu(tmpPanel,"Dummy_string_to_test_funtion",100,10,15,"Times New Roman#24b");
...

//Actual Functions
void PopupMenu(PANEL* *ReturnPanel, STRING* SourceData, var layer)
{   PopupMenu(ReturnPanel, SourceData, layer, 0, 0, ,"Times New Roman#12b");  }
//
void PopupMenu(PANEL* *ReturnPanel, STRING* SourceData, var layer, var pos_x, var pos_y)
{   PopupMenu(ReturnPanel, SourceData, layer, pos_x, pos_y, ,"Times New Roman#12b");   }
////
void PopupMenu(PANEL* *ReturnPanel, STRING* SourceData, var layer, var pos_x, var pos_y, STRING* font) 
{   ...performed code (eventually) by all overloads...   }

PS Ive tried with functions as VOID and FUNCTION and INT.

Thanks in advance
