We tried several different methods Dave, but COM objects are just not
compatible with CF8 or 9 64 bit.  Either you need another solution or go
back to using the 32 bit.

Depending on how the DLL is written, you may be able to invoke functions
through RUNDLL32.EXE from the command line. Or you may not.

But frankly, I would just try to avoid using COM in this environment
entirely. It's not going to scale well.
