IIRC the original complaint, since snipped, applied to BP and attempted to use a null statement after a conditional. It seems to me that there is absolutely no need for such a statement in BP, since ParamCount begins life there as a global variable, and it would probably not be good form to redefine it.
This focus on ParamCount is a red herring. That was just a trivial test program (as Frank always emphasises) that shows the problem. ParamCount is not the problem here. Rather, it is the warning about a ";" following a "then" that was being highlighted.
