  Hi Sammy,
  
  There are lots of tutorials available on the web, my favourite sites being w3schools and 4guysfromrolla. 
  
  The example below demonstrates how to call a function:
  
  In the head of the ASP page:
  
  <SCRIPT LANGUAGE="vbscript" RUNAT="Server">
  dim cube       ' script-level variable           
   Sub CubeIt(x)
      cube = x^3
   end sub
</SCRIPT>    


You can then call your function from the body:

<%



Dim intVar
intVar = 3
CubeIt intVar
Response.Write cube
%>
  
  If you have any more queries or want me to clarify anything let me know.
  
  Regards,
  Bob

  <%
  Function MyFunction(value)
      Dim return : return = ""
      return = "Your passed " & value & " into the function"
      MyFunction = return
  End Function
  
  'To write the return value:
  Response.Write(MyFunction("Some text"))
  
  'You could use "Sub" but sub's doesn't return values.
  'If you don't want to write the return to screen you could use;
  
  Call MyFunction("Some text")
  %>
  
  
  Hope this helps
