Just a wild guess, but oAppDocIdw is neither
dimensioned nor declared.  Try "Option Explicit".

Actually, it has been declared as a global variable

I guess the counting number of sheets caused error
here

This appears to be a case specific issue.  I
just wrote a simple program to test it and am able to get the sheet count
without any problem.  I tested it with a few different drawings, from
different versions of Inventor, and they all worked fine.  Is this
happening for all cases for you?  Can you post a drawing that's
demonstrating this problem?

Here's the VB 6 source from the sample I wrote to
test this.  Can you try this to and see if it works or not for
you?

 

Private Sub Command1_Click()
   
Dim oApprentice As New ApprenticeServerComponent
    Dim oDoc
As ApprenticeServerDrawingDocument
    Set oDoc =
oApprentice.Open("C:\Temp\Drawing.idw")
   

    Debug.Print oDoc.NeedsMigrating
   
Debug.Print oDoc.Sheets.Count
   
    Dim
oSheet As Inventor.Sheet
    For Each oSheet In
oDoc.Sheets
        Debug.Print
oSheet.Name
    Next
End Sub

Brian,

If I rename the sheet in the .idw file, then the
program works ok. However, I the file has more than on sheet and it has default
sheet name such as Sheet:1, Sheet:2, then I got a runtime error

Ouch...

 

It seems that the TrueConnect implementation (which
requires unique sheet names) is the cause for even more grief...
