Could you rewrite the function definition in terms of x only, leaving b as a constant specified elsewhere..?

Dear All
I have a function of 2 variables. I am trying to find the value of one
variable which minimizes the function while keeping the other fixed. The
minimize function doesn't want to let me keep one fixed.
e.g.
func(x,a):=......
given x=g1 b=g2
m:=minimize(func,x,b)
doesn't work because it tries to minimize across x and b, whereas I want b
to be fixed and I cannot leave b out of the minimze function.
Anybody know of a work around?
