Trying to read from generic IList but getting "Option Strict On disallows late binding" restriction

[Ronald S. Cook]

Hi,

I'm wanting to iterate over a generic IList, but the code won't compile
because the blue sqiggle line under:

_DataRow("SecurityFunctionName") = _IList(i).SecurityFunctionName;

sez "Option Strict On disallows late binding"

If I comment out the line and get to that place in the debugger, I can pull
the value in the Innediate window and it works. But I can't get around the
late binding restriction.

I've tried using ctype but that didn't seem to help.

Any feedback greatly appreciated.

Ron
