This compiler error occurs if the body of one of a void user-defined functions contains a return instruction.

 

For example.

// user-defined function
function AddOne(nZero)
begin
   inc(nZero)
   return  // triggers compilation error 110204
end
 
// main function block
var
    nStep nCounter
begin
    nCounter = 0
    AddOne(nCounter)
end

A void user-defined function must not contain any return instruction, even without a value.

 

Solution

 

The solution is to remove the return instruction that is serving no purpose.
