[Anonymous]

Hi, I got an Error: ActiveX componet can't create object. Error No:429 In my addin i try to use the clsSelect class that Autodesk have in the programing help. The function works fine when I run it as a macro, but when I paste it into my addin my problems start. I "call" the clsSelect class from the "main" class (Panelbarbutton). Please help Lars

Without seeing the code it is hard to guess, but maybe you can find something here http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=http://support.microsoft.com:80/support/kb/articles/q244/2/64.asp&NoWebContent=1 or here http://www.google.com/search?sourceid=navclient&ie=UTF-8&q=error+429 -- Kent Keller Autodesk Discussion Forum Facilitator "Lars Andersson" wrote in message news:415ee957_1@newsprd01... > Hi, > > I got an Error: ActiveX componet can't create object.

Hi

As you have written that your code is working in macro but is not working when you are driving it from VB. You have mentioned that you have copied the code from the sample. Please note that in the sample ThisApplication has been used for the inventor application object. But this is only valide from VBA macro. So you need to replace it by an appropriate Inventor application object and for that you need to get the Inventor application object by calling the GetObject function.

Thanks
