Hi Joe,
Unfortunately it sounds like (and I don't know much about COM mind
you, so you'll have to forgive any holes in this theory) the method
you're trying to call on that COM object is overloaded and CF doesn't
know how to call it properly. This is the sort of thing that could
theoretically be resolved if it were a Java component with JavaCast()
but unfortunately there is no ComCast() alternative (although that's
the name of our Cable TV company :) ... plus JavaCast() last I knew
only worked for identifying simple data types, so it wouldn't help you
pass another instantiated COM object anyway. The only thing that leaps
to my mind is that you would need to create another COM wrapper with
just the one needed method that could identify and properly call the
Cybersource object method. But then that's all theory on my part -- I
have fixed a COM object when I had the source code, but it's not the
sort of task I'm in a hurry to perform again. So I'm talking through
my hat to some degree about things I really don't know from
experience.
