Ambiguous and empty variable.

[Anonymous]

Why does calling a public sub give me this error? The sub is called "Resetlayer" and it is located in the "Layers" module. I used to be able to call just by Resetlayer. Also I have a Public variable that needs to be used by that same sub and when it gets there it is empty. Why does this happen? I am using AutoCAD 2004 VBA. On a XPsp2 machine. -- Thanks, David M.

Sounds like you've got 2 Restlayer subs. From the help file: The identifier (an element of an expression that refers to a constant or variable) conflicts with another identifier or requires qualification. More than one object in the same scope may have elements with the same name. Qualify the element name by including the object name and a period. For example: object.property -- I love deadlines I like the whooshing sound they make as they fly by. "David M. Gardner" wrote in message news:4151bc85_1@newsprd01...

Yep, ResetLayer is for shure used in more than one places. Do a search in you code on "Reset Layer", you will find what is wrong.

Thanks. I had it defined in something like 3 places. Along with the variable I was using. Now it all works good. -- Thanks, David M. Gardner Change the DOT to reply.
