Initialize event with parameters

[caseye]

Can you use parameters in the initialize event??

You can in VB.NET, but not in any earlier version of VB.

It's possible to fake it, though, by using a factory class.

... or a Construct() method (or some other similarly suggestive name) as a direct member of the class. The downside (as against a Factory) is an extra line of code at object create time, the upside is, er, not having to write the Factory(!) Depends on the size and complexity of the problem.

I am creating some data objects and when the object is created I want to pass the Data record ID so that I dont have to create the object and call a method

i.e
Set objWorkOrder = CreateObject("LAMDataObj.WorkOrderCls('WOID')&quot

I have VB.net standard wich does not support ActiveX Dll
Can I Use Visual Studio 6 to create the dll and then install the .net framework
