Hello

Thank you for sharing this information with us!

Your log contains A message from a client  contains messages like this:

Code Block
ERR#2: The Reference is not open: stdole2.tlb


One of the preparation steps for when using gmStudio is to generate descriptions of the COM components referenced by your VBPs.   These descriptions are used to help gmStudio interpret all the types and symbols used by your code so it can do things like make type inferences, resolve default properties, and deal with missing optional arguments.  The process to generate the descriptions should be automatic and is typically done once, before you run translations. It

If you get a message like the ERR#2 above, it looks like this was not done in your environment.   The no IDF was created for the stdole2.tlb library – before the translation.  The IDF creation process can be initiated automatically in gmStudio by selecting your VBP(s) and then clicking \ [Author Interface Descriptions] from the Tools menu. More on COM descriptions is here: https://portal.greatmigrations.com/display/GMG/Author+Interface+Description+Files 

 I would like to understand the process you went through with gmStudio so I can figure out why the COM descriptions were not created.  I would also be happy to do a web demo to walk you through the process and show you the advantages of using gmStudio. 

Please send me a note or let me know when we can do a brief call.
