Identyfing an object type

[Yazster]

Let's say I have a variable declared like this:

Dim X as object

Somewhere in my code I set this in the following way:

Set X = new combobox

Is there a way of finding out what type of object has been set to a variable declared as type "object"?

For example

I could set x to a ListBox type or ComboBox type, is there a way of finding out which one it is?

Thanks,
Yazster

the function, typeName, should work:

typeName(x)

This function will return a string that will tell you the type of object it is.

good luck!

This is exactly what I was looking for.
