I can do this stuff in C# by simply dragging and dropping a

Com *is* supported in D. I think it's better to work with
interfaces rather than classes like the Wiki example:
interface MyCOMType : IUknown {}
Then when you get a pointer from CoCreateInstance or whatever,
you cast it to the interface type and away you go.
In your code, your problem is that CoCreateInstance is failing,
not that D doesn't support COM. It will help you to find out
what the actual value of 'hr' is. Possible values are listed at

What interface are you talking about? How can I cast to something
I don't have? I do not have a photoshop COM interface. Are you
saying that if CoCreateInstance worked that I can then use the
iid or pUnk to access the COM? Do I get the members by trial and
error? pUnk.width? Even if CoCreateInstance passed, what do I do
next?
