I have not been happy with COM support under MX so far. It seems much slower
for one thing. Also I found the following problems:

* I have a VB6 COM which sets a property with type currency. When I read the
property in CF5 it works fine. When I read it with MX, the value is 1000
times to high. If I change the property to double, it works under MX.

* I had to make all my variables explicitly pass By Value in my VB program.
Otherwise, I had to use different syntax to pass in the variables -
something I want to avoid at this point so my code will run in both
environments.

* I have some properties defined as string types. If I attempt to set the
property to a blank (whether hard coded or through a variable), I get an
error.

All of this worked under CF5. Add to that, it is much slower loading the
COM.
