For completeness, I'll let you know where this error is occuring, and then I will show you the relevant part of the oleview/TypeLib view that I am having trouble modifying. (for your information, upnp.dll is contained in windows\system32 and oleview.exe comes with the Windows SDK Toolkit if you do not already have it on your machine). I am calling the function .InvokeAction sActionName, aryIns, aryOuts where aryIns and aryOuts are Variants declared like this: Dim aryIns As Variant, aryIns As Variant - basically, I declare it generally, put any input data I need inside aryIns and I will get aryOuts with the results of the InvokeAction call. The good thing is, InvokeAction turns my general Variant into a properly dimensioned array reflecting the number of output items tha

VB points out the cause of the error as a statement where I assign a MS Excel application object to a variable. I have added a reference to Microsoft Excel in my project. Code: Dim oXL As Excel.Application Set oXL = CreateObject("Excel.Application") ' Error 458 I'm using Win NT 4.0 SP6. What automation type not could be the cause of the error message? How do I solve it? Thanks in advance.

Try Dim oxl as object Set oxl = createobject("Excel.application") Steve Flitcroft MCP .NET, VB 6.0, ASP, COM+, VBS, WSF, WSC, Exchange2000 Reply With Quote Sep 20th, 2001,10:50 PM #3 cedx View Profile View Forum Posts Thread Starter Lively Member Join Date Jun 1999 Posts 80 I have put a reference to Excel in the project header. When I code Code: Dim oXL as Excel.Application The IDE actually gave me Excel as an option after I keyed in as in the Dim statement. IMHO, this is a sign of early binding. I even tried removing the reference in the project and putting it back.
