Late & Early Binding

RN1
Is this late binding?

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dim dSet As DataSet
dSet = New DataSet
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

& is this early binding?

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dim dSet As New DataSet
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Which one should a developer strive for & why? Also what are the
advantages & disadvantages of one over the other?

Thanks,

Ron

Had some trouble with Word automation. Sorted it, in the process thought I would try late binding. Some people reccomend it. So this: ********************************************************* Public Sub MailMerge(strQuery As String, strTemplate As String) snip Dim doc As Word.Document Dim wrdApp As Word.Application snip Set wrdApp = New Word.Application

Hi .. I have an issue I have been beating my head against the wall on for some time. I am trying to use late binding for MS graph so that my end users don't have to worry about having the right version of the MS Graph type library. Up until now I have been walking them through the process of setting the references to include their version of MS Graph library. My problem is that I can not seem to get the syntax correct .. or perhaps...

I've read many postings about the problem of Access.References.IsBroken and the consensus seems to be that late binding is the cure-all. I have a very complex Access application that needs hundreds of lines of code to format a Word document in a very specific way. Because my clients have various versions of Word, the problem of broken references comes up. I wish Microsoft had implemented a reasonable solution, so that VBA could do...

I was reading about late binding, but I'm not completely sure what is to be done in order to adjust code to late binding... For example, I'm not sure if this is correct: early binding: Dim ws As DAO.Workspace Dim db As DAO.Database Dim qdf As DAO.QueryDef Dim rs As DAO.Recordset

We are developing a C# application that has many interfaces to the Microsoft suite (eg Word, Excel, Outlook, Powerpoint, etc). We need to support Office 97, 2000, 2002 and any future versions. Our first cut used early binding and worked fine with Office 2002. We then ran on a machine that had Office 2000 installed and it all turned to custard. There appears to be a number of options to take to support multiple versions:

I am sorry for this but I am not getting an answer elsewhere so I thought I would try here. It seems the safer way to go prior to deployment is to change my early binding to late binding to prevent lots of issues occuring, especially those on Office versions other than mine. (I have 2003). such as Public WordApp As Object = CreateObject("Word.Application") Public oDoc As Object = CreateObject("Word.Document")

hi All, I've decided to use Options Strict ON in one of my apps and now I'm trying to fix a late binding issue. I have 5 integer arrays: dim IA1(500), IA2(500), IA3(500), IA4(500), IA5(500) as integer The integers in these arrays are actually pointers to different columns of data in a text file.

I need to use late binding in a project because it's company standard to not include references which aren't MS defaults, so I can't add the scripting runtime. I need to be able to search folders (and sub-forders) for a file name, and then copy the file to a specified directory (at the moment it's C:\TempCD but that will change later. All I have so far is the following, I believe my main issue to tackle is to figure out how to get to...

The process of verifying that an Object exists and that a specified Property or Method is valid is called Binding. There are two times when this verification process can take place: during compile time (Early Binding) or run time (Late Binding). When you declare an Object Variable as a specific Data Type, you are using Early Binding so the verification can take place during compile time. When you declare a Variable of the generic Object Data...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...

Let's talk about the concept of autonomous AI software engineers and no-code agents. These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention. Imagine an AI that can take a project description, break it down, write the code, debug it, and then launch it, all on its own.... Now, this would greatly impact the work of software developers. The idea...

Hello I'm a network technician in training and I need your help. I am currently learning how to create and manage the different types of VPNs and I have a question about LAN-to-LAN VPNs.
