Dan,
Here's the bare bones of some VB code which you might find useful.
Dim objMI As MapInfo.MapInfoApplication
Dim objMB As Object
Dim objMBGlobals As Object
Set mobjMI = GetObject(, "MapInfo.Application")
For Each objMB In objMI.MBApplications
If UCase(objMB .Name) = "XYZ.MBX" Then
Set objMBGlobals = objMB.MBGlobals
Exit For
End If
Next
MsgBox "Global value is: " & objMBGlobals("global_variable_name").Value
Hope its useful,
Richard Burkmar

Subject: MI global variables
Dear users,
Could anyone provide any assistance regarding global variables and
their interaction with Visual Basic. We can't seem to pass a value
in a global variable from MapBasic into a VB project, despite the
user guide telling us that it's easy with DDE!
Does anyone know why we might be experiencing problems?
Thanks
Dan Irwin
