Error when accessing low level objects and converting variant to refnum Type

Question

Hope someone can give a clue....
I'm using a dll, but it only has one creatable object, and I need to call two non-creatable objects.
When the method to return the new reference is called, an error occured ("Member not found.
in My.vi").
The weird thing is that when I wired the new reference, I'm able to see the new methods and properties expected of the new object.
Should I ignore this error???
Also, does anyone know, How can I convert a variant to a ActiveX refnum??? because, when I use the To G type Lib, if a refnum type is wired, it's like this type is not supported, but the list states otherwise.
Thank you in advance for any clue you can give me!!!

Answer 1

Since I do not know what type of ActiveX object you are calling, I do not know about the error you are seeing. However, since everything seems to be working after that, I would assume it's okay. Now, you can convert a variant to an ActiveX refnum, but how you do this depends upon what type of refnum you need. Use the Variant to Data.vi to convert your variant type to a refnum by wiring in an ActiveX refnum to the "type" input. You will first need to determine what type of ActiveX refnum it is (Automation, Control, etc) and then wire that wire type into this VI.
