VBapp - Automation error

Jul 14, 2003 1 Replies

Upon upgrading to Solidworks 2003, some VB6 applications, on some computers, began producing the message:



***************** Run-time error '-2147417851 (80010105)':

Automation error The server threw an exception



******************

I've tried switching the VB project's refferance from Solidworks 2001 type library to 2003 and recompile - it didn't seem to help. I've tried disabling some Solid add-ins. It solved some of the problems, not all (same message appears, only less).


If you trace this, is it occurring when you first connect to SolidWorks using CreateObject or GetObject?

Please let me know.
