I got a bit of code that launches Word and opens a file, as follows
Private sub OpenWord(Byval Fname as string)
Dim MyWord As New Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word.Application
Dim doc As Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word.Document
doc = MyWord.Documents.Open(Fname)
doc.activate()
MyWord.visible = true
end sub
When my project properties has Option strict On (which is what I want) I get
a blue underline in the IDE under the variable Fname (string type) and it
tells me that the string type can not be converted to object implicitly. I
do look at the intellisense of the Open method and I see the parameter
filename is of type object.
What do I need to do to be able to use my passed parameter Fname in the Open
method?
Thanks for any help
