Using MSFlexGrid Control

Does anyone know how to declare a MSFlexGrid Control. Ive got as far as Dim BomTable As MSFlexGrid

when i run the code it complains about the object not been set

ive tried set Flex1 = CreateObject( BomTable )

All i want to do is use the control

ie:= Flex1.clear

Im i close?

Please help Nick

I suspect (but am not sure) that you’re in the wrong language. MSFlexGrid isn’t a valid data type in LotusScript, which I assume you’re using. If it’s available for use as an OLE object, then you can use it something like this:

Dim Flex1 as Variant

Set Flex1 = CreateObject(“whatever the class name is for MSFlexGrid”)

…but it’s not something that exists within Notes.

yep, you use createobject to instance OLE classes, but msflexgrid is a licensed control which requires a license (as well as a runtime) on the client which runs it, so you couldn’t expect to use it in a general-audience app.
