I have a vb application that prints the drawing from everywhere inside our firm and send it to the printer nearest to the person. it is written with visual studio 2005.
Up to Autocad 2010 the following worked fine in Visual studio:
Dim Acad as object
Acad = CreateObject("Autocad.Application")
Acad.Visible = True
but now I get the following error in visual studio: Cannot create ActiveX component.
Even if I use the following text I get this error:
Dim Acad as object
Acad = CreateObject("Autocad.Application.18")
Acad.Visible = True
But if I use on of the following commands in VBA (Doesn't matter which program e.g. word, acad, excel)
Dim Acad as object
set Acad = CreateObject("Autocad.Application")
Acad.Visible = True
or
Dim Acad as object
set Acad = CreateObject("Autocad.Application.18")
Acad.Visible = True
it is working.
could someone please help me?
p.s.
createobject is still working for inventor 2010 and there I use the following
dim invent as object
Invent = CreateObject("Inventor.Application")
Invent.Visible = True
so what goes wrong anybody an idea
