A Parameter passed by Reference Cannot have a Default Value	This Global Variable has the Same Name as a Class
An Assigns Parameter cannot have a Default Value	This Global Variable has the Same Name as a Global Function
An Extends Parameter cannot have a Default Value	This Global Variable has the Same Name as a Module
An Ordinary Parameter cannot Follow a ParamArray	This Item Conflicts with Another Item of the Same Name
Array Bounds must be Integers	This Kind of Array Cannot be Sorted
Assigns can only be used on the last parameter	This Local Variable or Constant has the Same Name as a Declare in this Method
Cannot Assign a Value to this Property	This Local Variable or Parameter has the Same Name as a Constant
Cannot Get this Property's Value	This Method Doesn't Return a Value
Declaration: Contains a Reserved Word	This Method Requires Fewer Parameters than were Passed
Destructors Can't Have Parameters	This Method Requires More Parameters than were Passed
End Quote Missing	This Method is Protected. It can only be Called From Within its Class
