I Just generated first project with a property Page, compiler generates these errors for all generated functions.

Incompatible types 'HRESULT' and boolean. for the following

function Tfirst.Get_Active(out Value: WordBool): HResult;
begin
Result := Active;
end;

Error is onResult := Active;

Hi Abdul,

The MyFirstAddin demo project doesn't contain any option pages because this demo project is destinated for MS Excel. But in the MyFirstOLAddin demo project, there is such a page, so I can assume you are using the MyFirstOLAddin sample. I have just opened and compiled it without any errors using Delphi 7. Could you please describe step-by-step what you did with the project? In my MyFirstOLAddin example I don't have the following code lines at all. Could you please send me your version of this project for testing?


function IGlobalPropertyPage.Set_AutoScroll = IGlobalPropertyPage_Set_AutoScroll;
function IGlobalPropertyPage.Set_AutoSize = IGlobalPropertyPage_Set_AutoSize;
function IGlobalPropertyPage.Set_AxBorderStyle = IGlobalPropertyPage_Set_AxBorderStyle;
// etc.

Yes the demo is MyFirstOLAddin I changed absolutely nothing.
Functions before the autoscroll do not generate errors. It is also true if I create a new application with a wizzard.

Hi Abdul,

Very strange issue. Could you please send me this "damaged" project?

Do you have Update Pack 1 for Delphi 7 installed?
