SOLVED!!(Type Mismatch) - 7/8/2003 3:59:04   
This is part of the " intranet" project I' m working on. It should work on an " intranet" but will NOT work on the " internet" . This I know! But that' s not my problem but this is!

First the insurmountable type mismatch error:

Microsoft VBScript runtime error ' 800a000d'

Type mismatch: ' Pmt_'

/FrontOffice/messing.asp, line 32

Second the Active X DLL: (written by yours truly)

Public Function Pmt_(ByVal foRate As Double, ByVal foNPer As Double, ByVal foPV As Double, Optional ByVal foFV As Double = 0, Optional ByVal foDue As Variant = 0) As Double
bError = False
On Error GoTo e
Pmt_ = Pmt(foRate, foNPer, foPV, foFV, foDue)
Exit Function
e: bError = True
Err.Raise vbObjectError + 1, srctag & " PMT_()" , Err.Description
End Function

Third my VBScript:

<%
set obj = CreateObject( " frontoffice.fin" )

foFV = 0
foPV = 2400
foRate = 0.099
foNPer = 36
foDue = 0

tmpFld = foFV
If Not IsNumeric(tmpFld) Then tmpFld = 0
foFV = cDbl(tmpFld)
tmpFld = foPV
If Not IsNumeric(tmpFld) Then tmpFld = 0
foPV = cDbl(tmpFld)
tmpFld = foRate
If Not IsNumeric(tmpFld) Then tmpFld = 0
foRate = cDbl(tmpFld)
tmpFld = foNPer
If Not IsNumeric(tmpFld) Then tmpFld = 0
foNper = cDbl(tmpFld)
tmpFld = foDue
If Not IsNumeric(tmpFld) Then tmpFld = 0
foDue = cInt(tmpFld)
tmpFld = foPmt_
If Not IsNumeric(tmpFld) Then tmpFld = 0
foPmt_ = cDbl(tmpFld)
tmpFld = TotInt
If Not IsNumeric(tmpFld) Then tmpFld = 0
TotInt = cDbl(tmpFld)

TotInt = Pmt_(foRate / 12, foNPer, foPV * -1, foFV, foDue) ' The infamous Line 32


Response.Write " Your payment will be " & FormatNumber(TotInt,-1,-2,-2,-2) & " a month for this loan."

set obj = nothing
%>

I have tried every to get past the type mismatch, Ive tried placing placing CDbl just about evey place in the dang program. I' ve tried the MS site and tried those suggestions.

I' ve tried this in the VBScript Editor and it works fine as it should. When I take the same code and make it a DLL that' s when I come up with the type mismatch.

Like I said, this is not for the faint of heart - Any suggestion?? - BigD

BTW the answer is 77.32

Try recoding your activex arguments to variant datatypes. There are some restrictions on what kind of datatypes can flow between COM objects. ASP only supports the " variant" datatype with " subtypes" so anything that flows back to your asp page from your component must be a variant datatype.

In other words, would it be something like this:

Public Function Pmt_(ByVal foRate As Variant, ByVal foNPer As Variant, ByVal foPV As Variant, Optional ByVal foFV As Variant = 0, Optional ByVal foDue As Variant = 0) As Variant
bError = False
On Error GoTo e
Pmt_ = Pmt(foRate, foNPer, foPV, foFV, foDue)
Exit Function
e: bError = True
Err.Raise vbObjectError + 1, srctag & " PMT_()" , Err.Description
End Function

Inquiring minds, you know! - BigD

Let me catch the thought pattern on this, the variant type would be initialized when I set my object in the asp page to send to the com. Would I have to reset the types to use them in the function and/or to send them back? I' m a bit lost??:)

Nope, just tried it, this isn' t the answer, maybe I don' t understand it??:)

There is a paragraph about datatypes in this old article which may help.

I' ve read that about 5 times over. I just can' t make it fit. I know this can be done, wish I could figure it put. This started as an overnight project and is now going on 5 days over one routine. If I keep this up, one of these days I' ll have to get a job!! - BigD

Hopefully someone that' s done this often will read this thread. I have only written a couple activex components for fun but not for production.
