I'd type

    Assets.add (TheAsset)

I've already written the code for the 'add' subroutine in the Assets class,
and VB recognizes it because the autocomplete lists it.  Yet I keep getting
the same old Error 438!

add is a public sub, so's there's no reason why it shouldn't work.

I have VB 6.

Pleeeeeeeease anyhelp would be appreciated, I'm trying to get a school
project done

Assets is an object,  your calling the method "Add" , which Visual Basic is

that's why this errors occuring.

Now, if your using a class, you need to create an instance of that class.

Firstly, use correct naming convention, go to your Assets Class Module, and
rename it to "clsAssets"

In the General Declarations section of the form that your calling that
"Assets.Add" function , add this:

Private Assets As clsAssets

Then in the Form_Load event add this:

Set clsAssets = New clsAssets

Then run the project again and you should be able to run it sucessfully.

If you still fail, ensure your Add sub/function is Public in the clsAssets
Class Module, otherwise its only available to that Class.

Hope that gets your assignment in!

Best Regards,

Tim

I think you are barking up the wrong tree.  Assuming that "TheAsset" is
an object reference then that syntax is trying to evaluate the
expression (theAsset{.<defaultproperty>}).  If there is no default
property you get the error you mentioned.  The correct syntax is:
Call Assets.Add(TheAsset) ' use parens when you use Call
--or--
Assets.Add TheAsset ' omit them when you omit Call
