Hello,
I'm trying to setting up a connection between E5062A VNA and a computer (more precisely in VBA).
I just installed drivers ni-488.2_21.5_online and ni-visa_21.5_online. When my VNA is connected through GPIB/USB, I can see it with NI MAX software and I can even send the command *IDN? to obtain the VNA parameters :

My VBA code is :
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sub test()
Dim ioMgr As VisaComLib.ResourceManager
Dim Equip As VisaComLib.FormattedIO488
Set ioMgr = New VisaComLib.ResourceManager
Set Equip = New VisaComLib.FormattedIO488
Set Equip.IO = ioMgr.Open("GPIB0::1::INSTR")
'Equip.WriteString "*RST"
'Equip.WriteString ":SYST:PRES", True
End Sub
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I'm trying to setting up the connection (this doesn't work) and tried a reset of VNA, but I already got an error with the "Dim ioMgr As VisaComLib.ResourceManager" line :

I already did a communication with a E5063A with only USB cables and a VBA soft and it worked, that's why I don't understand my mistakes. I also read some Keysight pdf docs with many pages but nothing really helped me. I'm sorry if I'm not in the good forum section.
Thanks a lot for future answers!
