When I attempt to connect MaxIm DL to TheSky, I get the error "Object variable or With block variable not set."

The most likely cause is the "server settings" in "TheSky" are incorrect. You can find more information on connecting "TheSky", "MaxIm", and the server settings at the following link:

If this does not correct the problem, then it is most likely a problem with "TheSky", and you will need to contact Bisque software for further assistance
