If I attempt to encapsulate one line, the compiler rejects the encapsulation

The critical code is the following:
Dim WrkBkPtr as object
Dim WrkShtPtr as object
Set wrkBkPtr = ThisWorkbook
Set WrkShtPtr = WrkBkPtr.Worksheets(1)

Const R as long = 2
Dim C() as long
Dim U() as long
C(i) = 22
U(I) =33
WrkShtPtr.Cells(R, C(i)) = U(i) This is the line I will be encapsulating


The complier is very happy with the above.
But if I encapsulate the above last line resulting in the last line being:
PrintData (WrkShtPtr,R, C(i)), U(i))

“The compiler issues a “syntax” error even though the passed parameters have the exact same data type within the subroutine, PrintData:

Private sub PrintData (WrkShtPtr as object, RowStart as long, ColStart as long, UnpackedValue as long)
WrkShtPtr.cells(Rowstart,ColStart) = UnpackedValue
end sub
 

Excel Facts

What is the fastest way to copy a formula?
If A2:A50000 contain data. Enter a formula in B2. Select B2. Double-click the Fill Handle and Excel will shoot the formula down to B50000.
Your parentheses are placed incorrectly. Try one of these two options...

Code:
 PrintData WrkShtPtr, R, C(i), U(i)

 Call PrintData(WrkShtPtr, R, C(i), U(i))
