Creating RMS POS Com Object

Jun 26, 2006 3 Replies

Hi! I need to create several addins, and I can't get past square one. I'm used to writing vb for access, and not dll's. I opened a new active x .dll in vb6, copied & pasted the process code from the customization guide, save it as a dll, registered the dll, and created a com-session button, but all I get is 'Attempt to execute COM object D:\yada-yada\RMS3.dll failed. Cound not create object.' Can anybody tell me what I'm doing wrong? Jerry snipped-for-privacy@jrdata.us


It sounds like you have entered the wrong identifier in your Custom POS Button.

You should have entered something like DllName.ClassName

Also, from your description, it's not clear if you entered the code in a CLASS Module or a CODE Module. You need a Class. The first code window that opened should have been a Class, with a default name of Class1. If you didn't change this, your component would be registered as :

RMS3.Class1

Thanks, Glenn! I knew it was something I missed.

Hi all,

Has anyone tried to do this with .net 2.0 yet? I have a couple of plugins that I need to develop and want to use vb.net / c# and have not had any success yet. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
