ActiveX Control Produces Run-Time Error '-2147417848' when Using SaveEnhWMF
Method on Windows XP with Service Pack 2 Installed
When attempting to save an enhanced Windows metafile to disk in Windows
XP with SP2, the SaveEnhWMF method in any
IDAutomation ActiveX barcode
control may cause the following error:
Run-time error '-214741848 (80010108)':
Automation error
The object invoked has disconnected from its clients
Option 1: Download the latest version of the product. To obtain this,
you may have to
update your support
subscription.Option 2: Use the "SaveBarcode"
method of the control instead.
Option 3: The issue is due in part to a difference
in the way the metafile is being initialized. The pixel width/height of
the metafile can be initialized before saving the image. To do this, call
the SetPixelsXY function before calling SaveEnhWMF. For example,
SetPixelsXY 250, 250, where
250 is the height and width in pixels of the image that will be saved.
Option 4: Use the
.NET Windows Forms
Controls and/or .NET
Barcode Image Generators instead.
