Hi ALL

I am trying to connect Microstation from Microsoft products (Excel or Access DB) using VB the following code

Private Sub Attach_Microstation_Click()
    Dim msApp As Object
    Set msApp = CreateObject("MicroStation.Application")

    blah — blah

    blah — blah
End Sub

The above lines work all the time if I am using Microstation V8. However when using Microstation XM or Microstation V8i, it sometimes works and sometimes Microstation XM just freezes – apparently for no reason. Does anyone know why Microstation XM would behave that way. Is there a butoon or variable or some switch, which I need to press to make the above lines work with Microstation XM or Microstation V8i

Regards
