Hi all. I am working with the scantest of application documentation (shocker), and what there is seems to be misleading/contradicting. I will ask the software company as well, but their last reply took weeks. In the meantime....(thanks).....
I am trying to access the [alledged] COM interface of a GUI application we'll call: Xyz
My Question: Would the results below imply to you that there IS no COM interface available, that it needs to be registered, etc...
USER MANUAL STATES:
Here are the only two quotes related to the app's COM Interface ability:
"Since Xyz is a 32 bit application using COM (Component Object Model) components, running Xyz from a network......".
"You can access the Xyz.Interface COM object to query for information and present it in a format you like".
CODE EXAMPLE 1:
Dim xyz_com Set xyz_com= CreateObject("Xyz.Interface") xyz_com.Visible=false
RESULT 1:
"Object doesn't support this property or method: 'Visible'"
CODE EXAMPLE 2:
Dim xyz_com Set xyz_com= CreateObject("Xyz.Interface")
RESULT 2:
The initial application screen appears which - if I AM starting the application in 'server mode' as they say - I wouldn't think I would have the screen showing.
CODE EXAMPLE 3:
Dim xyz_com Set xyz_com= CreateObject("Xyz.Interface") xyz_com.QueryInterface()
RESULT 3:
"Object doesn't support this property or method: 'QueryInterface'"
