No, the main problem is come from lc_Data value type - Variant Type.

I had a similar problem last week:

A VB6 project with a .Net dll:

Solution: Make 1 or more variables as variant.

And then call the procedure

so:

dim temp1

temp1 = 1

functionxx(temp1)

By the way: I use the CFront.dll (not CFront.ocx)

Why are you asking this in a Forum dedicated to Visual FoxPro You may get an answer in one of the more relevant Windows Forums....

Does not make sense. It accepts variant and you are passing text.

Pass it directly ansd see if it works.

loCF.AssignField(1.0,2.0,"Test")

assuming these are correct values.

Ummm, "Variant" means that it does not require a particular data type - it could be Text, Decimal, Integer DateTime - whatever!

From what you have posted, your code should work as far as I can see. So more likely is that one of the other parameters is incorrect or that, despite the "Variant" declaration it is really requiring a specific data type (i.e. not a character string).

But without more detailed documentation or access to the source code it is not possible to tell.

Try to see if it works this way:

loCF.AssignField(1.0,2.0,lc_Data)

as it seems it does not like integers (expects long).
