Using Geoprocessing tools in VBA

[JeanJuengling]

When trying to import some 9.3.1 VBA code in 9.4, I get a run-time error '21474672559 (80004005)' on the GP.Toolbox line below:

Dim GP As Object
Set GP = CreateObject("esriGeoprocessing.GpDispatch.1")
GP.Toolbox = "C:\Program Files\ArcGIS\Desktop9.4\ArcToolbox\Toolboxes\Analysis Tools.tbx"

Is it still possible to access the geoprocessing tools this way?

[RalfGottschalk]

Yes it will be possible to create the Geoprocessor this way at 9.4.  However, this does not work right now at Beta 1.  This is a known issue and the tracking number is NIM049770.

I'm having the same issue with beta 1 using script tools written in vbscript that access the geoprocessor through gpdispatch.

You can add me to the list!

I was told that ARCGIS 9.4(10) doesnot support VBA anymore. is it right?

Jesse, VBA is supported, but requires a special install.

In truth, I'm trying to use VBScript, not VBA. Can someone help?

I've also tested this issue at the current build 2396 and it's still a problem. It was fixed for build 2217 but is now a problem again. I will provide some additional information as soon as possible.

After further investigation I found out that this is a known issue (NIM057021) that the problem came up again and should be resolved for the final build.

Jim, i would be happy to test a patch if that will help. This is needed functionality!
