Thanks for your help.


The propblem occurs when a method of the class uses the addproperty() method. as follows
x = createobject("comprop.testaddprop")
x.addprop()

Addprop Method
this.addproperty("test1", "test1")

? x.test1
Error Unknown Name.


This error only occurs when the component is a com.dll. When I use the set classlib to ... and
x = createobject("testaddprop")
the above code works.


I could not get your solution to work. There was a property that existed in my class when I compiled it. I ran the following code:

x = createobject("comprop.testaddprop")
x.test7 = "test7"
? x.test7
Returned test7

? x.returnprop(test7)
Error varialbe test7 not found

? x.returnprop('test7')
Error Unknown Name




>I had a lot of trouble with this same sort of thing -- sharing the data component of a COM object. After several months (literally) talking to the MS help lines I learned the secret. It seems that you must expose a method in the COM object to return any of the data properties. Instead of:
