Why do I get this error write I write OPTION STRICT ON? with this code

Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
XmlSchema11.ReadXml(Application.StartupPath & "\..\Data\GRID.XML", FileMode.Open)
End Sub

Private Sub Form1_Closed(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Closed
XmlSchema11.WriteXml(Application.StartupPath & "\..\Data\GRID.XML", FileMode.Open)
End Sub

I get this error:

C:\Documents and Settings\Telemetrika.Com\Desktop\XMLGrid\Form1.vb(111): Overload resolution failed because no accessible 'ReadXml' can be called with these arguments:

It tells you exactly why.

'Public Function ReadXml(fileName As String, mode As System.Data.XmlReadMode) As System.Data.XmlReadMode': Option Strict On disallows implicit conversions from 'System.IO.FileMode' to 'System.Data.XmlReadMode'.

There is no ReadXML that takes System.IO.Filemode as a paremeter. It uses Syste.Data.XmlreadMode

[Sheppe]

Because Option Strict On doesn't allow any implicit conversions. That means that it won't be able to look at "FileMode.Open",which is actually "System.IO.FileMode.Open" which has a value of 3, and convert it to a "System.Data.XMLReadMode". The equivelant "System.Data.XMLReadMode" value to "FileMode.Open" is "System.Data.XmlReadMode.InferSchema".

HTH.

[Sheppe]

LOL Cander. You beat me to the punch.

How should I re-write the Load Form event then?

[Pirate]

Turn OPTION STRICT off and try , Or there's nothing wrong with your sub , you should pass the right data type .

[piscis]

Pirate:


The sub works just fine When I turn Option Strict Off.

I need Option Strict to be ON so what can I do to make this sub work.

Should I attach a small example?

[Cander]

We already answered the question. Sheppe in particular.

[Pirate]

What SUB are you getting problems with (your code is unreadable without vb tags)? again if the program is working well , keep OPTION STRICT off .

[DevGrp]

Do what pirate said. Pass in the right data type.
