No, it is an application with all kinds of 'security' to prevent you from
using it. In fact I can't use it right now because of a server issue! I
will try to find a similar interface in a more public library. My first
thought is that the deep nesting of properties is the cause though, like the
COM objects didn't get unwrapped at some point? The other possibility is
that this is just another bugged interface in this buggy application I have
to use :rolleyes:
