Object Not Set Error on MbeRefFiles in Microstation Macro

I have a Microstation macro that reads the reference files in the current drawing and then prints them to a text file. We are working on getting this running for the new Microstation v8i (upgrade from v8). The macro normally runs through each reference file (from index = 1 to MbeRefFiles.maxRefFiles) and finds the active reference for output.

Now instead, it keeps throwing an Object variable not Set error when referencin开发者_开发知识库g the MbeRefFiles(index) object. I'm just doing a Set refFile = MbeRefFiles(index) and it says MbeRefFiles isn't set, which doesn't make sense because it doesn't need to be set. The macro is completely unchanged and has been working for years, and now suddenly it can't read the reference file object. Anyone have any insights?

As far as I know, you have to use VBA than you can get more comfortable support.Microstation's VBA is based on Microsoft's engine while MBE is cooked by Bentley.

MicroStation BASIC became obsolete in 2001 when Bentley Systems released MicroStation v8.

Prefer to use MicroStation VBA. It fully supports MicroStation V8 where MicroStation BASIC falls short. MbeRefFiles.maxRefFiles is an example of the shortcomings of MicroStation BASIC. MicroStation VBA provides a collection (ModelReference.Attachments) that you can iterate using VBA idioms.
