When you've ruled out everything else that doesn't make sense, you're left with the obvious, eh? I'm sorry you took it wrongly. I honestly haven't used that control, so I can't offer specific advice. Have you tried comparing the TypeName's of the two objects? Or do you just think VB is out to get you? ;-) -- ..NET: It's About Trust! http://vfred.mvps.org

Btw, providing a link always encourages those curious to try recreating the error, without having to recreate whatever twisted google query you did to find the problem.

I thought that line would have given it away that it's a tongue-n-cheek reply to some of your...eh...er... down level statements. <g> :-) LOL!

Now that I am not sure how to do. How is that done? Seriously. If I declare a variable of type FUNGUS, and then try set the variable to a new object of FUNGUS.OBJECT, I'm a bit puzzled why this would not be the same type. Darn those MSDN people! :-) Webbiz

HTH! ;-) Yes, but that would be a logical thing to do and could ruin my reputation for being a clutz. <g> http://support.microsoft.com/kb/163653 Webbiz |
