If you are using the 6K's ComServer within a timer event inside a Visual Basic project, you may encounter this error:

"Run-time error '-2147418107 (80010005)':Automation error."

This error occurs because you cannot make a call to an ActiveX server from a timer until the previous timer event has finished. Please see the following web site for more details:
