Help with OLE Automation

Now that I have information in a way that imports and exports the information correctly, I have been tasked with creating an OLE to automatically import the data into the SPC software. I have one that sort of works (as in opens the program, logs in, opens the right collection plan, etc) and I can get put in static information, but I am unsure how to call the information out of PC DMIS to have it be placed in the spots we need in the SPC software being used.

Has anyone else done this? Can anyone explain to me how find the variable and the measurement output in PC DMIS? I am using version 4.2 if that helps any.

Thanks so much.

  • If the code on the previous page is what you are working with, then it seems you have forgotten this:

    If StrDimID.IsDimension Then
    Set ObjDimCmd = StrDimID.DimensionCommand


    You never cast the object type.

    Instead you are directly setting properties:

    If ObjCmd.IsDimension Then
    StrDimID = ObjCmd.DimensionCommand.ID


    You seem to do this for the featurecommand as well (else if).

    I don't know if this causes it to display null, but worth a try.
