You're right! I tried that, but I did it wrong. I used: _variant_t v2 (myString.c_str); Now it works with the parenthesis. Thanks!!!

You're right. Didn't work. :( Thanks

Hello and thanks for the response. Is CString only for MFC apps? I read that somewhere. This dll I am working on is does not use MFC. I'll see if I can do something similar to this, which probably doesn't work, but I'll give it a shot. std::string myString = (_bstr_t)v; myString = myString.substr(0,1000); _variant_t v2( (_bstr_t)myString ); Thanks!!

Hello, I am a C#/VB programmer. I am trying to fix something that someone else wrote. There is a variable of type _variant_t. I need to take that value, and split it into 2 smaller variants. I am having problems doing this. If anyone can point me in the right direction, I would appreciate it. Here is the variable, "v", that I need to split into 2 variants. //-------------------------------------------------------- // "m_pResponseBuf->BufPtr()" is a pointer to the text in // a Response object. //-------------------------------------------------------- _variant_t v( m_pResponseBuf->BufPtr() ); m_Response->Write( v ); How would I take a portion of "v" and put the results into another variant? Thanks Danny
