VBC09367 — Invalid use of AddressOf operator

Severity: Error · Family: VBC (static semantics / abstract syntax tree) · Source metadata: VBCompileErrorInfo

An AddressOf expression names a method of a class module, or of an object.

The address AddressOf gives is that of a procedure of a standard module: a method of a class is reached through an object, and has none.

MS-VBA reports the same error, with the same message (recorded in Excel).

This code is raised where the arguments of a call are evaluated, at the AddressOf expression.

How it is raised

Situation	Example	Resolution
A method of an object.	`TakesPtr AddressOf c.Increment`	Pass the address of a procedure of a standard module.
A method of a class module.	`TakesPtr AddressOf Counter.Increment`	Move the procedure to a standard module.
