Object Required Script Error

JonStumbler · 10-27-2004

When my script attempts to reference an object of type Scripting.Dictionary a runtime error such as this is reported: "Object required: 'New_SSIDs' Line:290 Char:2 SCode:800A01A8". Any ideas?

Thanks

Which script is it?
What is it that the script is supposed to do?
Do you have other needed components installed and running correctly? (e.g. MapPoint if it's a MapPoint mapping script.)
What is the actual code on Line 290?

I've just had to erase a rather decent description of the "problem." I just set UseSpeech = True, and the error no longer occurs. (I'm using MapPoint 2004 on W2K. Speech works, incessent bleeping works, little red car follows me around town...)

If I set UseSpeech = False, the Object required error returns on line 290.

Sub OnScanComlete(...)
...
287 If UseSpeech And (New_SSIDs.Count > 0) Then
288 Dim n, a
289 n = New_SSIDs.Count
290 a = New_SSIDs.Keys
291 For i = 0 to n-1
292 TTS.Speak a(i), SVSFlagsAsync
293 Next
...

Near the top of the script, New_SSIDs is set to the Scripting.Dictionary object only if UseSpeech = True. If alter that to initialize New_SSIDs always, the error ceases irrepective of the state of UseSpeech. Somehow, the above code is being executed when UseSpeech= False and thus New_SSIDs hasn't been initialized. I don't see it...
