Bad variable type

[Dan]

Hi,

I am developing a COM exposed dll in VB.NET.
Everything works fine under Windows XP but when I try to compile my
dll under Windows 2000 i get the following error message.

COM Interop registration failed. Type library exporter encountered an
error while processing '_IPCustOrder.CreateBase(i_dStdPriceOut),
IPMain'. Error: Bad variable type.

The dll compiles but the COM registration fails.

I have not been able to find any errors in CreateBase and as I said it
works fine under Win XP.

Does anyone know what might be wrong here?


Thanks in advance,
Dan

Hi,

Is the class marked as comvisible? Use regasm to register a
vb.net dll.
