Strings and Shorts from vb.net to vb6 component ??

Hi,

How should i pass Short and String datatype parameters from vb.net to
vb6 component. Should I use conversion function or it will work just
fine with no conversion.

MTIA,

Short and String shouldn't make problems. Short is Integer in VB6 as you
probably know.

Hi,

Strings should pass fine. A VB.NET short is the same as a VB6
integer.

I thought I should make conversion since short in vb6 is 8-bit integer
while it is 16-bit in vb.net and the same thing with string type.

Short does not exist in VB6. Short in VB.Net is 16-bit, and 16-bit in VB6 is
Integer.

VB6 VB.Net
8 bit Byte Byte
16 bit Integer Short
32 bit Long Integer
64 bit - Long
