1. That's a terrible file-sharing site.... just FYI.

2. You have not found a bug... You are not using the keyboard or function.call methods correctly.

See the manual pages that refer to these events and, if you're still stuck, I suggest you post a question in the "How do I" forum.

Colludium, try out this capx http://www.filedropper.com/bug2. Is this not a bug too?

Are you purposely not passing in the name, or are you missing the point that you aren't specifying the function name at all. It's not clear. You should be calling this:

Function.Call("Function",Variable1)

Oh yeah, that works. Thank you!

Yeah the real problem is you're circumventing the type check using a global variable to pass a number where you should pass a string.

Ideally C2 would reject this as an invalid expression but then changing the type of global variables could invalidate large numbers of expressions. That's not such a nice consequence. So closing as won't fix.
