Trouble with _variant_t

[yanuart]

I get this error [code]error C2664: '_variant_t::_variant_t(VARIANT &,bool)' : cannot convert parameter 1 from 'const char [5]' to 'VARIANT &'[/code] when I tried to create a new variant using this code : [code]_variant_t varID("myID", VT_BSTR);[/code] what's wrong ?? as the docs says its okay

hi There is no default constructor for _variant_t that takes the 'value' and 'VT_BSTR' 2gethor... Simply give the value only. So change ur code with the following. _variant_t varID(L"myID"); rgds..mil10
