I have already developed some applications for the STEP 7 Command Interface with Visual Studio 2003 and 2005 (both C# and Visual Basic .NET) and they work without any problems In order to use the STEP 7 Command Interface you have to add the following references to you project (both COM objects): Simatic 1.0 Type Library s7hcom_x 1.0 Type Library

If you tell the compiler, that the "Simatic" object can be found in the "SimaticLib" namespace ("SimaticLib.Simatic") everything is OK. If don't want to tell the compiler where to find the Simatic objects every time you create an object, you can import the namesspaces into you source file. To do so include: [code]Imports SimaticLib Imports S7HCOM_XLib 'Now you can use: DimS as New Simatic[/code] at the top of your source file.

Do you know how to get this fixed?. Best regards Jen_Moderator
