Object required!!

[Kandiman]

can anyone see where im going wrong?..

im trying to pass a xml string into a vb6 dll, but i get a error

Error Type:
Microsoft VBScript runtime (0x800A01A8)
Object required: ''
/MyWeb/Guestbook2.asp, line 55



the code giving the problem is:

dim objGuestbookWriteNode
set objGuestbookWriteInfoDLL = createobject("Guestbookdll.Guestbookclass")

dim GetGuestbookWriteResult
GetGuestbookWriteResult = objGuestbookInfoDLL.Guestbookwrite(cstr(strXMLwrit e))

set objDOM = server.CreateObject("MSXML2.DOMDocument")
objDOM.LoadXML(GetGuestbookWriteResult)


and strXMLwrite is:

strXMLwrite = "<Guestbook><EntryID></EntryID><UsersIP>" & Request.ServerVariables("REMOTE_HOST") & "</UsersIP><DatePosted>" & NOW & "</DatePosted><Message>" & Request.Form("txtGuestbookEntry") & "</Message><UsersName>" & Request.Form("txtUsersName") & "</UsersName></Guestbook>"


and the dll is expecting in StrWrite as string.

can anyone help?...

The error is you have misnamed your object.

You wrote:

dim objGuestbookWriteNode
set objGuestbookWriteInfoDLL = createobject("Guestbookdll.Guestbookclass")
 
dim GetGuestbookWriteResult
GetGuestbookWriteResult = objGuestbookInfoDLL.Guestbookwrite(cstr(strXMLwrit e))
 
set objDOM = server.CreateObject("MSXML2.DOMDocument")
objDOM.LoadXML(GetGuestbookWriteResult) 

The problem is that you've used a different object name than you've set.

objGuestbookWriteInfoDLL (line 2 of my code above) is different than:
objGuestbookInfoDLL (line 5 of my code above).

Rename the object on line 5 and it just might work. I am assuming this will solve the problem, because I cannot see your entire source.
