Hello everyone,

In ArcGIS 10.2 with VS 2012 the line:

workspaceFactory.OpenFromFile(connectionFile, 0)

returns the error message:

"Error HRESULT E_FAIL has been returned from a call to a COM component."

Public Function ArcSdeWorkspaceFromFile(ByVal connectionFile As String) As IWorkspace

Try

Dim factoryType As Type = Type.GetTypeFromProgID("esriDataSourcesGDB.SdeWorkspaceFactory")

Dim workspaceFactory As IWorkspaceFactory = CType(Activator.CreateInstance(factoryType), IWorkspaceFactory)

Return workspaceFactory.OpenFromFile(connectionFile, 0) ############## RETURNS AN ERROR

Catch ex As Exception

Debug.writeline(ex.Message)

Return Nothing

End Try

End Function
