different type refnums

[osto]

Hi,

Can someone tell me what's the difference between the attached VI's? (Test & Test2). "Test2.vi" is an example that I'm trying to reproduce in "test.vi". "Test2.vi" works fine but the "test.vi" shows a broken wire. Error message says:

"Wired refnums are of diffrent types. The type of the source is Automation reference of class. The type of sink is Automation reference of class." What's wrong??

I'm not sure but i think that you messed up with the interface. Excel has two different versions of interfaces. If you work with Excel 2007, the up-to-date API is 12.0. But the very same Excel also supports the Excel 5.0 API.

You cannot mix that two in a single application.

hope this helps,

Norbert

I made a new vi, selected "MS excel 11.0 vers.1.5". No help, still the same error. I'm using office 2003.
