I am trying to get a function to work but the argument passed to it is a user defined type.
How do I create the argument which gets passed to the function?

Code:
Public Type Employee
   Name as string
   Role as string
   Salary as string
End Type

and the function is...
Code:
Public Function GetEmployeeInfo(ByRef EmpDescription as Employee) as String

How do I call the function???
 

Excel Facts

Fastest way to copy a worksheet?
Hold down the Ctrl key while dragging tab for Sheet1 to the right. Excel will make a copy of the worksheet.
Code:
Sub x()
    Dim Bob As Employee
 
    Bob.Name = "Robert"
    GetEmployeeInfo Bob
End Sub
 
Public Function GetEmployeeInfo(ByRef EmpDescription As Employee) As String
    MsgBox EmpDescription.Name
End Function
