Detecting if pointer has been initialized

[Andre Arpin]

I am trying to check if a pointer has been initialized using the following
code but it does not work I would appreciate any suggestion.
Thanks in advance
Andre

If Not (Me.AxPolyCtl2 Is Nothing) Then

Me.AxPolyCtl2.sides = NumberOfSides.Text()

End If

-----------------------------------------------------------------

defined as:

Friend WithEvents AxPolyCtl2 As AxPOLYGONLib.AxPolyCtl

initalized as:

Me.AxPolyCtl2 = New AxPOLYGONLib.AxPolyCtl

 

[One Handed Man \( OHM - Terry Burns \)]

What is the reference type ?

--

OHM ( Terry Burns )
. . . One-Handed-Man . . .

Time flies when you don't know what you're doing

If Not (Me.AxPolyCtl2 Is Nothing) Then

Me.AxPolyCtl2.sides = NumberOfSides.Text()

End If

Maybe AxPolyCtl2 has been initilized, but the Sides property has not
(is it a collection?)

I am sorry I have not come back earlier my computer was being serviced.
The test is correct the problem was that the activex was being accessed
before it was active.
This is my first basic program and I did not realized that this possible.
