Error Values
This method sets the Number property of the global Err object to S_OK (&H00000000) to indicate success and to either standard or custom COM error values to indicate failure. For more information about standard COM errors, see Standard COM Errors.
The following table shows the custom COM errors that this method can return.
Constant | Value | Description |
E_LM_CONNECTIONFAILED | &H8C400001 | Failed to establish database connection. |
E_LM_CREATE_OBJECT | &H8C400017 | Unable to create the object. |
E_LM_INVALID_FLAGS | &H8C400005 | Invalid flags value. |
E_LM_LIST_ALREADY_EXISTS | &H8C400007 | The specified list has already been created. |
E_LM_MAILABLE_LIST_NO_EMAILS | &H8C40000D | The list is designated as a Mailable list but does not contain an rcp_email column. |
E_LM_OPER_CANCELED | &H8C40000B | The operation was canceled. |
E_LM_REPORTRENDERERFAILED | &H8C40001A | The report rendering object failed during Analysis report export to ListManager. See the Application event log message logged by that object describing the problem. |
E_LM_SQLERROR | &H8C400003 | Error while executing SQL/ADO operation. |
E_LM_USER_LIST_NO_GUIDS | &H8C40000E | The list is designated as a User list but does not contain an rcp_guid column. |

Remarks
This method calls into the ReportRender object, passing it the DWConnStr, OLAPConnStr, and the ReportStatusId parameters along with a connection string to the database used by the ListManager object, and the table name that it should create.
For a list of possible values for the lflags parameter, see the GetListFlags method.
