Late Binding produces DISP_E_MEMBERNOTFOUND when returned from a function

[QuickBooksDev]

I converted a large VB6 ap to VB.NET 2005.

I have found that a Late Binding works in VB6 but not in VB. NET when a Function is used.

Ex.

Select Case Type
case 1
LineObj = Type1
case 2
LineObj = Type2
end Select

The below works without a problem
LineObj.itemref .fullname.setva lue(mItem)


But the below fails after it does it FindMe 438 Member not found. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80020003 (DISP_E_MEMBERN OTFOUND))
QBSetVal(LineOb j.ItemRef.fulln ame, mItem)

QBSetVal does some checking and eventual does a
pObj.setvalue(m Item)

Public Function QBSetVal(pObj,. ....)
pObj.setvalue(m Item)

And the value IS SET properly but when control to returned back to the caller after the RETURN it gets the MEMBER NOT FOUND.

I do not understand how it can set the variable properly in the object but throw the error just on the return.

Can someone tell me what is occurring?

Please help!!!!

Hi,

Few things i could notice:
When you set an Object May be use "New" KeyWord..
LineObj = New Type1case 2

And by default the Variables passed to Function are ByVal, I Guess, you need to use "ByRef"..

Public Function QBSetVal(ByRef pObj,.....)

I'am not sure, but you can give it a try..
