Hi all I am a php developer but since working in an organisation I got a work on a vb6 project.
The software is quite old let say atleast 10 year and I don't know vb6 at all. But still I manage to solve some errors but now I stuck on and I didn't get any solution. I have got this error when compiling the project, highlighting this code.
with .Panels(6) = selected.
Public Sub StatusBarDateTime()
'' FrmMain.Stb1.Panels(5) = Time
FrmMain.Stb1.Panels(6) = Format(Date, "dd-mmm-yyyy")
End Sub
and when I delete this line on code it show another error that
Compile error:
Sub or Function not defined
highlighting this line of codes
Private Sub MDIForm_Load()
StatusBarDateTime
End Sub
I assumed that it is declaring the function. so I delete this function also.
Now after deleting this when I compiled againg I got this error saying that
Run time error'481'
Invalid picture
and when I click on debug it shows this line of code
Private Sub Form_Load()
FrmMain.Show
Dim strUser As String
Call Center_Align(FrmLogin)
OpenConnection
strUser = "select * from TMUser order by login_name"
rsUser.Open strUser, conpgdhm, adOpenKeyset, adLockOptimistic
Set CmbUserID = rsUser
CmbUserID = "login_name"
CmbUserID = "login_id"
End Sub
highlihting Set CmbUserID = rsUser line. and now I got nothing.
I don't know how many error may I get after resolving this but that is the next part.
First I have to solve this. I have no idea how to resolve this.
I am banging my head around for two days now, If someone can help me please.
Thanks in advance.
Those were helpful....
The reason it's stopping there is because you are attempting to assign a datareader (or whatever object type rsUser is) as the value to a string or int type (CmbUserID)
You are trying to fit a whole bag of rectangles into a round whole. This is in reference to your latest error only. Based on what I see here, you lack the experience in VB6 to continue without some assistance. I suggest a consultant.
Hope this helps.

I am trying to connect to an open application and send command to one of it's DLL functions. Here is the code- the error happens on the the GetObject. What am I doing wrong?
Dim oOL
Dim lcCmd
lcCmd = "'QQWOMOD.TWOAuto', '100',False"
MsgBox lcCmd
On Error Resume Next
'The Next stmt is commented out, but gives the same error as the one that follows it
'Set oOL = GetObject("C:\Program Files (x86)\Component Control\Quantum Control\Quantum.exe", "Quantum.SysMod")
Set oOL = GetObject("Quantum.SysMod")
If oOL is Nothing Then
MsgBox "1- " + Err.Description
MsgBox "1- " + Err.number
End If
MsgBox ("2")
oOL.InspectWO(lcCmd)
MsgBox("3")
A suggestion: comment this line and run the program again.
On Error Resume Next
This line is not allowing you to understand the error because the program will go ahead even though the error is raised.
Welcome to Stack Overflow. I'm still amazed by the number of people who start programming using ancient VBScript, but let's see this through. :)
The first thing you need to do is avoid using On Error Resume Next wherever possible, since this will mask the true cause of your errors. The error you report, Object Required is because oOL has not been set at all due to an error with the line above. If I take your example and allow errors, we'll see that it's complaining about a syntax error stemming from the call to GetObject. I believe you meant to use CreateObject?
Assuming that's the case, you'll have to run it again and see if it works. If not, and you get an error like "ActiveX component can't create object" it means you don't have the necessary DLL installed for Quantum SysMod. You should look at the software's documentation to see about registering it. You can also reference the regsvr32 page.
Again, if you have any other development tools available to you that can load the required component such as, C# or even VB.Net, then you should really try using those instead. VBScript is a terrible language.
I have read all of the questions on here about this topic and none of them provided me with a workable solution, so I'm asking this one.
I am running a legitimate copy of Excel 2013 in Windows 7. I record a macros where I insert a picture, and in the open file dialog I paste this URL: http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/41u%2BilIi00L._SL160_.jpg (simply a picture of a product on Amazon). This works as expected.
The resulting macros looks like this:
Sub insertImage()
'
' percent Macro
'
'
ActiveSheet.Pictures.Insert( _
"http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/41u+ilIi00L._SL160_.jpg").Select
End Sub
However, when I attempt to run this, the Insert line breaks with the following error:
Run-time error '1004':
Unable to get the Insert property of the Picture class
I am trying to insert a number of pictures into an excel document and I am using the ActiveSheet.Pictures.Insert method to do this. I have been experiencing this issue there, so I recreated it in a way others could replicate to facilitate getting an answer...
An interesting thing to note is:
http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/41u%2BilIi00L._SL160_.jpg 'This is what I pasted
http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/41u+ilIi00L._SL160_.jpg 'This is what the recorded macros recorded
It looks like Excel automatically resolved the %2B to a +. I tried making that change, but to no success.
Another interesting thing to note is that sometimes this does work and sometimes it doesn't. This url is a case where it does not work. Here's one where it does: http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/51mXQ-IjigL._SL160_.jpg
Why would Excel generate a macros it can't run? More importantly, how can I avoid this error and get on with my work!? Thanks!
Try this workaround:
Sub RetrieveImage()
Dim wsht As Worksheet: Set wsht = ThisWorkbook.ActiveSheet
wsht.Shapes.AddPicture "http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/41u+ilIi00L._SL160_.jpg", _
msoFalse, msoTrue, 0, 0, 100, 100
End Sub
All fields are required, which is kind of a bummer since you cannot get the default size. The location offsets and sizes are in pixels/points. Also, the % turning to + is just alright, as % would cause it to be not recognized (dunno why).
Result:
Let us know if this helps.
I'm experiencing the same issue.
After some digging I found out Excel does a HTTP HEAD request before getting the image.
If this HEAD request is unsuccessful Excel will return the exact error messages mentioned in this discussion.
Your could easily test this using Fiddler.
Part of my code copys info from one worksheet in Excell to another. Every time I run this cood it gives me a run time error '1004' for the last line of code (activeSheet.Paste). Does anyone know how to fix it?
Sub CopyData()
ActiveWindow.SmallScroll Down:=-9
Sheets("sponsor & contributions 2012").Select
Range("A1:K93").Select
Application.CutCopyMode = False
Selection.Copy
Sheets("remaining payments").Select
Selection.PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteFormats
ActiveWindow.SmallScroll Down:=-12
Range("A1:K93").Select
ActiveSheet.Paste
End Sub
Rather than simulating a user 'copy+paste', it's easier, quicker and more robust to set the value of your target range to that of your source range. e.g.
Public Sub Copy()
Sheet2.Range("A1:K93").Value = Sheet1.Range("A1:K93").Value
End Sub
Determining the cause of a 1004 error can be very difficult without being able to look over the spreadsheet, so I would definitely recommend the above approach
So I'm pretty new to Visual Basic and inherited this VB6 code that i need to work on now. Right now, I'm trying to update a SQL database using an ADODB.RecordSet. I have a Select SQL statement that pulls the right data from the database into the ADODB.RecordSet, but I'm having problems updating all the rows. What I am trying to do is to update the same column for each row with the same value. Right now, its updating a few of the records, but I'm getting an error pop up. The error I get is:
Run Time error 3021: Either BOF or EOF
is True or the current record has been
deleted. Requested operation requires
a current record.
When I click to debug, it takes me to rsUpdate.fields(TargetFieldName) = value
The project itself is huge and too large to post, but the part of the code that I'm working on now is this:
If rsUpdate.State = adStateOpen Then
If rsUpdate.EOF Then
rsUpdate.Close
Exit Function
End If
rsUpdate.MoveFirst
Dim i as Integer
For i = 0 To rsUpdate.recordCount
rsUpdate.fields(TargetFieldName) = value
rsUpdate.MoveNext
Next i
On Error GoTo canupdaterecord
rsUpdate.Update
On Error GoTo 0
rsUpdate.Close
End If
Exit function
So any help you guys can give me would be greatly appreciated. Like I said, I'm pretty new to VB and am kind of learning this all as I go.
I would guess the problem is an off-by-one error:
For i = 0 To rsUpdate.recordCount
rsUpdate.fields(TargetFieldName) = value
rsUpdate.MoveNext
Next i
If recordcount returns 5, this loop will make 6 runs: 0,1,2,3,4,5.
I'd write it like this:
while not rsUpdate.EOF do
rsUpdate.fields(TargetFieldName) = value
rsUpdate.MoveNext
wend
Try this also:
If reUpdate.EOF Then
Exit Sub
End If
I am having a very strange problem. First, the code.
Private Function ProcessRecord(ByVal rsDocs As ADODB.Recordset) As Variant
Dim rsTemp As ADODB.Recordset
rsTemp = rsDocs
rsDocs = RemoveDuplicateDocs(rsTemp)
Exit Function
The error is occurring on the second line of the function, where rsTemp is set equal to rsDocs. It's saying: "Compile error: Invalid use of property". I've looked for information on this error elsewhere, and all the reports are cases where people either forgot an equal sign, or incorrectly added the "Set" command to the beginning of the line of code. This error makes no sense to me, because it was compiling fine before, and the changes I've made to this project are not even in the class that throwing the error. The code here is identical to the way it was before. Has anyone ever seen an error like this pop up for what seems to be no good reason? Thanks!
You need to use
set rsTemp = rsDocs
since rsTemp is an object.
