Exclamation Optional parameters on create function
How can I create a user defined function with optional parameters ?

I currently have:

CREATE FUNCTION dbo.ft_ParseCommaString
( @String varchar(8000)
, @Delimiter char(1) = ','
, @UpperCase tinyint = 0)

And when I call it without specifiing the optional parameters, I get the following error:

An insufficient number of arguments were supplied for the procedure or function ft_ParseCommaString.

from the MSSQL manual
When a parameter of the function has a default value, the keyword "default" must be specified
when calling the function in order to get the default value.
This behavior is different from parameters with default values in stored procedures
in which omitting the parameter also implies the default value.
