Attachmate Help

[Sworkman2]

Hi Guys

I am trying to attempt a connection to our attachmate system through microsoft access. After reading the tutorial i thought i had a fair idea.

I cannot find the Attachmate 7.5 Object library but i have lots of other ones like:

Attachmate 3270 Screen objet library
Attachmate Action Key Object Library
Attachmate Command Action Library
Etc.

Nothing with a version number at all.

Also if i open an active session and goto help menu then Click About it says:

Enterprise Access Objects
Version 3.0 International
Copyight 1995 - 2000 Attachmate Corporation

Which makes me thin that it is a sub product of attachmate
but that wouldnt explain al the other type librarys.

can anyone shed any light???


Much appreciated.

Scott.

You don't have to include the library to access Extra, it just makes it easier. Have you tried:

Dim o_Sys, o_Sess, o_Scrn
Set o_Sys = CreateObject("Extra.System")
Set o_Sess = o_Sys.ActiveSession
If o_Sess is Nothing Then
    MsgBox "Unable to access Extra Session"
Else
    o_Scrn = o_Sess.Screen
End If

Hi Skie

Thanks for your reply, if i use that code i get the dreaded Active X component Cant Create Object message, I have cheacked all DLL files and no problem as i can create other Object Types.

The only thing I can think of is maybe one or your dll are missing or corrupt. Have you tried removing and reinstalling Attachmate?
