This thread is for discussions of Polymorphism in VB.

Hi there,

Great article, very interesting. But when I tried to implement the idea it worked well until. When trying to create public methods in the Implementing Classes of the Interface other than the methods provided by the interface I stumbled upon a problem.

The autocompletion of VB6 could not find the methods, why is that? And when I type in the method by hand and run the app I get the error: Method or Data member not found

Which means that inspite of which type of Class I initialize I only have access to those methods that are implemented in the Interface class, is there a way around it? Or have I totally missunderstood it?

good stuff this

If you need to access methods specific to that object, then you need to declare a variable for that object. For instance,

Dim obj As myActualObject

Set obj = New myActualObject

rather than the interface that myActualObject might be implementing...
