GP Fault Setting Property Value to Array of Custom Data Type

• Microsoft Visual Basic programming system, Applications Edition, version 1.0

SYMPTOMS

In a Visual Basic module, if you set the value of the name of a property procedure to an array variable of custom data type, you receive a general protection (GP) fault.

WORKAROUND

To avoid receiving a GP fault, set the value of a non-array temporary variable to the value of the variable custom data type, and then set the value of the name of the property procedure equal to the value of this temporary variable.
