I am trying to use the following code through VB6 (without success I might add) If ustn.MbeReffiles(ref_loop).saveSettings(1) = ustn.Mbe_Success Then MsgBox "saved" Else MsgBox "no save" End If From my understanding, if you set the MbeRefile.savesettings optional argument (overrideUserPref) to a non zero value it will save the changes you have made to the MbeRefile object regardless of the "Save Settings to Save Changes" preference setting !!! From the Ustn basic help File .... If the optional overrideUserPref argument is zero or omitted, the function first checks the state of the "Save Settings to Save Changes" user preference. If this preference is TRUE, it indicates that the user wishes to save reference file manipulations only when the MicroStation "Save Settings" operation is performed. In that case mbeRefFile.saveSettings returns MBE_RefSaveDeferred (1602) without actually saving the new settings. If overrideUserPref is nonzero, or the "Save Settings to Save Changes" preference is FALSE, the new settings are saved. I can get it this code to work if I have the "Save Settings to Save Changes" preference setting as TRUE, but not if I have it set to False ??....and the function always returns Mbe_Success regardless if it has worked or not... This code seems to function fine running purely as a ustn macro... Has anyone else used this within VB6 ???...any suggestions ??? regards Darren D Perth, Western Australia
