VB Help

Hello all,

I am trying to develop a VB app using ADO. The server is an AS/400. I have
a CL Program that simply retrieves a data area into a parameter. I want to
retrieve that parameter back into my VB program. Here is the VB code:

Public Function rebuildIsRunning() As Boolean
Dim cm As ADODB.Command
Dim Rcds As Variant
Dim Parms As Variant

Set cm = New ADODB.Command

Set cm.ActiveConnection = frmMain.dc.cn
cm.CommandText = "{{CALL /QSYS.LIB/QGPL.LIB/RBLDISACT.PGM(?)}}"
cm.Prepared = True
cm.Parameters.Refresh
Set Parms = cm.CreateParameter("var", adChar, adParamInputOutput, 1)
cm.Parameters.Append Parms
Parms = Array("T")
cm.execute Rcds, Parms, adCmdText
If Parms(0) = "Y" Then
    rebuildIsRunning = True
Else
    rebuildIsRunning = False
End If


End Function

I put a line of code in my CL that will send a message displaying the
passed parameter ("T") to my message queue. That part works. The problem is
when trying to look at PARMS coming out I get a "Type mismatch" error
message. If I debug it, the debugger states "PARMS(0)=Missing".


Thanks,

Mark
