RE: MI VB / MB Error

[Toothaker, Greg]

Richard and L,

I gave the code a try and have encountered another error:

-2147023186: Automation error
The object universal unique identifier (UUID) was not found.

Again, any experiences with this error or ideas would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Greg

Greg,

I loop through the MB applications collection because I've found it hard to
predict the correct case of all the characters in the string used to
identify the application.  Executing a loop like this in break mode will
let
you see exactly whats going on too.
 
   For Each obj In objMapInfo.MBApplications

If UCase(obj.Name) = "DATTOMAP.MBX" Then

Set mbApp = obj
Exit For
End If
   Next

I have run into a problem on a users system which is very annoying.  I
have
a code which uses VB for the user interface, and MB to do the work in
MapInfo.  The error occurs while I am establishing the 'connection'
between
VB and MapBasic.  My code goes as follows:

Public objMapInfo As Object
Public mbApp As Object
Public globinfo As Object

Sub Main

  Set objMapInfo = GetObject(, "MapInfo.Application")
  objMapInfo.Do "Run Application """  App.Path  "\dattomap.mbx"""
   Set mbApp = objMapInfo.MBApplications.Item("dattomap.mbx")
  Set globinfo = mbApp.MBGlobals

My error occurs on the Set mbApp statement.  I have the error trapped and
have put a timer on the error in case the mbx hasn't had time to execute.
My error trap allows about 60 seconds to pass which should be more then
enough time for the mbx to basically open and go into a wait state due to
the remote message handler in the code.  

I have noted the number of mbapplications (msgbox
objMapInfo.MBApplications.count) and it reports the correct # of mb apps.
When I attempt to note the names of the MBApplications(msgbox
objMapInfo.MBApplications.Item(1).Name ), the code fails.  

The VB error I keep getting is (-2147417851) which is basically saying
'the
server threw an exception'.  

This code works fine on 90% of my users systems.  This error is occuring
on
a WinNT system where MI is local and the other mb applications run on a
server.

Any thoughts or comments would be appreciated as I am out of guesses on
this
one.

Thanks,

Greg Toothaker

MI MB passing arrays to VB

[Toothaker, Greg]

Can Visual Basic read an array from MapBasic, if so, could you point me in
the direction of the commands needed.  I can pass integers, strings, and
logicals as single variables with no problem, but continue to fail with
arrays.  Any assistance would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Greg
