VB4: Dim db as Database error in Class module

Author	Message
Paul Jeffre #1 / 8	VB4: Dim db as Database error in Class module When run a simple OLE Server app in VB4 EE, I get an error wherever I declare a Database variable. Eg. Dim db as Database Error: User Defined Type not allowed This also happens for Recordset declarations. I've tried declaring them Global in a separate code module, ie outside the Class modules, but that didn't help. When I create an ordinary project, ie not an OLE server, I don't have the problem. Any ideas? Thanks, Paul Jeffrey

Any ideas? I haven't actually experienced this problem myself, but have you double checked that the appropriate DAO is checked in the References list??? -- Karl Costenbader, President Competent Consulting Sacramento, CA Home Page: http://www.competent.com

YOu have a class module called "Database". Maybe you loaded a VB3 project into VB4, one file being called DATABASE.BAS ? Same thing happened to me, and it was confusing! Robert.

Charles Dunaw #6 / 8	VB4: Dim db as Database error in Class module I too had this problem originally. The attached class module does a lot of the DAO busywork and may be helpful to those working in that mode. Note: I have not explored all the various connect options so you may need to add the specific one for your target DB.
