I have an .asp script accessing some ActiveX objects in a VB .dll. The code
snippet to follow is the script code. The line below;
=========>   Lightbox.AddChild 1, LightboxDetail <==============
Gives me an error. The method, Lightbox.AddChild takes as the 2nd parameter
a reference to an "Object". At run time I get a "Type mismatch" error.
In a VB executable I can easily fix this by doing the statement;
        dim Lightbox as Object
but in VBScript I can only do
        dim Lightbox
What can I do to solve this problem of resolving this type mismatch?
Thank you.

<%
        Dim Lightbox
   Dim LightboxDetail
   Dim LightboxDetailList

   Set Lightbox = Server.CreateObject("WebBO.CLightbox")
   Lightbox.Att(2) = "PaddleNow6"
   Lightbox.Att(3) = "Let's do the San Juans"

   Set LightboxDetail = Server.CreateObject("WebBO.CLightboxDetail")
   LightboxDetail.Att(3) = "Image1"
   LightboxDetail.Att(4) = "Comment1"
   LightboxDetail.Att(5) = "Descr1"

   response.write(LightboxDetail.Att(3))
   response.write(LightboxDetail.Att(4))
   response.write(LightboxDetail.Att(5))

=========>   Lightbox.AddChild 1, LightboxDetail <==============

   Set LightboxDetailList = Lightbox.GetChild(1)
%>

In your VB code, change the second parameter of Lightbox.AddChild from
Object to variant.  That should fix it.
