VB6 Error — “TYPE MISMATCH (ERROR CODE 13)” w/ IMAP Search method

This happens if the Chilkat ActiveX objects are dragged and dropped onto your formvia the “Project–>Components” menu. Instead, add a reference to the objects via the “Project–>References” menu.

Instances of the object should be created dynamically. For example:

Dim imap as ChilkatImap
Set imap = New ChilkatImap
