I know nothing about COM,
but do objects get registered to a user account? if so, then you'll need
to register it with the user account that CF runs as as well. You might
also try restarting the CF services, if you haven't already, if you registered
the DLL while it was running.

Ok. that makes sense.
This is on a development machine so this machine is both the client and
the server. What are the implications of that? Do I need to do
something other than just register the dll as normal, regsvr32?

Subject: RE: [CFCDev] CFOBJECT
java.lang.NullPointerException
The first snippet
runs client side (in your browser), while the second runs serverside (in
CF). You'll need to install the component on the server in order for
it to work.
This works
<script language="VBScript">
Sub
FindButton_OnClick
Dim
ZP4
Set ZP4 = CreateObject("ZPComSrv.ZP4Com")
End
Sub
</script>
This doesn't
<cfobject type="com"
action="" class="ZPComSrv.ZP4Com" name="zp4">
I get an
error:
An exception occurred when
instantiating a Com object.
The
cause of this exception was that: java.lang.NullPointerException.
What would cause this. It must be registered or the
vbscript wouldn't work, right?
Also, can I access those vars from
vbscript (zp4) with cold fusion later in the page?
Can someone point me in the right direction for troubleshooting
com object and whatever other information on using com object that you
know of.
TIA,
