VBScript and ActiveX component problem

[LokiDba]

Hi

I have a problems calling a function on an activex object (written in C++) which has a parameter passed to it by reference. Calling other functions on the object work fine but the value returned in the parameter is Nothing. Any ideas

Thanks in advance

what it's the parameter?
it's an object,variant,etc?

 

[LokiDba]

The functions prototype on the ActiveX object is as follows

getValue( ByRef al_Value As Long )

Any ideas

Hi


If you are going to pass the value as byref then it should be defined as varient

getValue( ByRef al_Value As varient )

please try this it will work


Thanks

Thanks MuthuKumar,

I ended up producing a wrapper COM object that used Varient and it seems to be working.


Thanks LokiDBA
