WithEvents in Module 1

[sannas]

I'm using VBSendMail.dll to send mails but i wanna code a function under my modules to send emails. However when i try to declare

Private WithEvents poSendMail As vbSendMail.clsSendMail


I get a "only valid in Object module Error" compile error.
The dll uses withevents which catches any errors, so i need it for checking errors.

Any ideas on what i can do?
Thanks

Have you tried switching it to a form module? Just a guess, since the error says "only valid in Object module Error."

i have already did that it works in a form but as we use emails all over the program it would be easier to maintain if we had it in a module.
Thanks

The problem is that you need to have an event handler. Objects have event handler, standard code modules do not because they are not objects.

You might creating your own custom class and use that class instead of the standard code module.

Good Luck
