Script Call Failed

I'm using BPM 7.6.  when I try calling a script from my form, I get the following error:

"Unable to load script text, reason <0x80020101>. Procedure Script call failed.  Position: 44"

-------------------------------------------

Pre Eval

%Script(VBScript,,,%MapName,"ClearValues()")

-------------------------------------------

Post Eval

%Script(VBScript,,,DA227a,ClearValues())

-----------------------------------------

The script name is 'Clearinformation'

-----------------------------------------

Function clearValues()
    'empty out the values on the  form
    ework.ContactName = ework.Empty()

 

'    ework.EmpSig = "THIS FIELD WILL BE AUTOMATICALLY POPULATED UPON SUBMITTAL."
'    ework.Signature = "THIS FIELD WILL BE AUTOMATICALLY POPULATED UPON APPROVAL."

End Function

------------------------------------------

Am I not seeing something?

    Unfortunately the error message may not be pointing you to the actual problem.  You really need to review all scripts to ensure that there is not a syntax error somewhere else, most likely in another script or before this function in the same script.  This would cause a downstream effect on your section of your script you are trying to access here.

    It may be obvious, but you need to make sure that ContactName is created as a variable in your procedure. I also would try simply putting: 

     

    eWork.ContactName = ""

     

    I know that vbscript is not case sensitive, but I always try to be consistent with cases as well: ClearValues() vs clearValues()

     

    Let us know how it goes.

    I do recall that in version 6 and beyond you must have the Procedure name parameter for script calls. This was just one of the many things that caused a huge amount of editing to be done to move from version 5 to version 6, which is why I remember it well (and not with pleasure).

     

    If you use the wizard to build the script call (even a dummy one), you can see what the parameter is and where it goes.

    Thanks. I'm new at writing VBScripts in BPM. However, I'm trying out a simple "if" statement that goes like this:
    I testing my script call by putting in something simple.
    i.e. "ework.fielda = ework.Empty()" and it works. But
    when I call the following function:
    ---
    function IFTEST()
    If ework.fielda = "w"
    then ework.fieldb = "test"
    End If
    end function
    ---------------
    I get the above mentioned error.
    I checked serveral VBScript books. It looks like my script structure is correct. Is there something that I'm missing? Thanks.

    Try the following instead:

     

    function IFTEST()
    If ework.fielda = "w" then

    ework.fieldb = "test"
    End If
    end function

    WoW! Putting "then" at the end of the sentence!
    My old COBOL programming days are still haunting me!
    IT WORKS!
    Thank you, thank you, thank you.
