ASP and DLL

[john]

I have a VB DLL. When I reference it in a VB project...it calls everything
from the DLL and executes correctly. Now I would like to use this DLL with
an ASP page to cut down on the ASP code. How do I do this? I will be sending
one piece of information to the DLL. There it runs it's route. That's it.

Register the component on the web server. Instantiate the object in your
asp code using the Server.CreateObject("")
Set the new object and then use it just as you would in vb.

I am pretty sure I have done that. Here is what I am trying:

Number = Request.Form("Number")
ToEmail = Request.Form("ToEmail")
dim objDll
set objDll = server.createobject("MyDLL.clsMyDLL")
objDll.SendMail (Number),(ToEmail) 'Type Mismatch error on this line.
set objDll = nothing

Inside the dll, it takes the "Number" and finds the matching record in an
Access database. It does all of this fine. Then it should send an email with
the record information to the "ToEmail" from the original posting page. The
function in the dll is set to variant, as well as the passing variables.
I can't get past this type mismatch error. I set the variables to variant
from information I gathered from searching the web. I have been at this for
quite some time. Thanks for any help.

Try using the Data Type Conversion Function.

for example:-

objDll.SendMail CInt(Number),CStr(ToEmail)
