Treeview Add Node Error (version 6)

[Beaner5434]

I'm creating a treeview control with VB6. If I use version 5 of the treeview control, the following codeline works just fine...

Set nodX = frmPatTree.trePatRecs.Nodes.Add(, , "Alpha", "Patient Names (" & PatCount & " patients)&quot

However, if I use that same line with version 6 of the treeview control, I get an Error #13 -- Type mismatch.

Any idea why?

Try to cteate a String variable and give it the value "Patient Names (" & PatCount & " patients)"

and

Set nodX = frmPatTree.trePatRecs.Nodes.Add(, , &quot;Alpha&quot;, <<Strin Variable>>)

If dosen't work (I know it's illogical) try to change the treeview control on You form. The syntax it's correct.

I thought of that, and I still get the error. I even tried the examples they give in the help file, with the same results. The syntax is right on the mark, so I don't understand why I am getting a type mismatch error. Very weird...

Not sure but is PATCOUNT a variant? or numeric?

If numeric you can try converting to string:

Set nodX = frmPatTree.trePatRecs.Nodes.Add(, , &quot;Alpha&quot;, &quot;Patient Names (&quot; & [red]STR$([/red]PatCount[red])[/red] & &quot; patients)&quot

I know this is silly, since it works in 5, but this is the best I can offer on TYPE MISMATCHes (and it is also based on 1127's notes about STRING VARIABLEs...it's the only non-string in the lot).

Hope it helps some. --MiggyD

Never be afraid to try something new. Remember that amateurs built the Ark. Professionals built the Titanic.

Change the control on You form (put on a new one)
