OCX Import-pararmeter

[Former Member]

Hi,

I'm using VB.Net and doing a rfc with OCX. Everything works except the import of a value which is returned from SAP. What I am getting back from SAP is just one number of type I (=Integer). I noticed that in VB I have to use a variable of type object (integer produces an error). The problem is that I always get a 0 even if SAP returns another value (I checked the export-paramater in SAP and this is working correctly).

The code is:

FunkCtrl = CreateObject("SAP.Functions")

FunkCtrl.connection = oConnection

Funktion = FunkCtrl.Add("z_vb_arc_display")

Funktion.Exports("IV_VBELN") = iv_vbeln

Funktion.Call()

Dim x As Object

x = Funktion.Imports("FEHLER")

Can anybody please tell me what is wrong?

Thanks

Hi,

using VariantType doesn't change anything.

Its type is '_ComObject'.

Hi,

an additional information:

I just tested it in VBA and there it works, using type Integer.

The difference is also that in VBA if I type a wrong name for the import-parameter this leads to an error, in VB.Net this is not recognized.

Can anybody help me please?

Try using Variant instead of Object.

OR ... after the variable gets set, use "Debug.print Typename(xxx)" in the debugger to see what its type actually is.
