How to check type of object in VB 6.0 we have to modify existing code to use 'typeof' method, Is there any method like moving cursor over object variable or like quick watch where I can see its type.
I know following method but I do not want to use it -
Set fs = New Scripting.FileSystemObject
If TypeOf fs Is Scripting.FileSystemObject Then
Debug.Print "Is a FileSystemObject"
End If
For example: Type intType = typeof(Int32); object value1 = 1000.1; // Variable value2 is now an int with a value of 1000, the compiler // knows the exact type, it is safe to use and you will have autocomplete int value2 = Convert.
The two major variable categories are numeric and string. Numeric variables store numbers, and string variables store text. Object variables can store any type of data.
The GetType() method of array class in C# gets the Type of the current instance. To get the type. Type tp = value. GetType();
Try the TypeName Function.
In your example if you enter TypeName(fs)
in the Immediate Window you would get back "FileSystemObject"
