Hello, I installed the full VS.NET onto a test computer and
successfully created the BITS.TLB. I've added this as a reference in
VB6 which appears to expose the methods/functions etc okay..... But
when I the following :
Dim test As New BackgroundCopyManager.BackgroundCopyManager
Private Sub Form_Load()
test.GetJob
End Sub
It generates this error : "Variable uses an automation type not
supported in Visual Basic"...
...Is there any way to fix this or is the TLB unusable in VB6?
Many thanks
Adrian
