Hi all
I am getting the following error and it is driving me insane. I just cannot find a fix for it. :
You tried to assign the NULL value to a variable that is not a Variant data type.
Now I have a main form linked to a as400 table. This has a subform on it, also linked to a AS400 table. Now the foirst control on the subform( also the first field a user needs to complete on the form) is the one I am trying to popullate. The minute I try to enter any data into this control is when I get the above error. I click ok on it, am allowed to carry on the completion of the data I want to type in there and when I move onto the next control , the data is written to the linked table, but then after entering text on the second control(which is also on the subform) and I move on to the third ( which is a control on the main form) I recieve an error that the ODBC link has failed.
Any ideas why I get this Variant error anyone? I am not using any variables with the subform or the main form.

On this 1st Field in the Sub-Form, do you have any code in the Enter(), Change(), Click(), GotFocus(), etc. Events?

Thanks for a super quick reply. Nope, No code what so ever on any event, which is why I can't understand why it is referring to a variable.

Hi, all.
Just a quick question, when setting a COM process to read a value from
a pre-defined register index, I think, I have to change the variable
that the value will be returned to (as I have to do for the same
function in perl), into a VARIANT, However when i run the variant
code....
'serialIndex = win32com.client.pythoncom.VT_VARIANT'

Hi,
I'm writing a wrapper to a win32 dll in C#. I need to call
a method in DLL which has a Variant type reference
parameter.
How to marshal variant type from win32 (unmanaged code)
to C# (managed code)?
I tried using Marshal.GetObjectForNativeVariant(), but of
no use.

Hi guys!
Just wanted to let you all know that I created a Variant structure, inspired by the old VB6 days. This is written in C#, but you can build a CLR/.NET class library assembly and reference it to your liking.
' Here is an example of use:
' start with a string of "1"
Dim da As Variant = new Variant("1")
' add an integer of 2, becomes 3

I have old legacy code from vb5 where data was written to a file with a

in vb5 the code was:

Hello
If Variant type is the data type that contains any kind of data type is
there a reason why one would not always use Variant when declaring
variables?
Thanks
