Do you have equivalent ASP code for this object? Perhaps we could look at
it and tell you what it should look like in CF.
To answer your question, yes, but sometimes data types are handled a bit
differently than they are in ASP/VB. You could try:
<cfset tmp =
obj.dologin("#form.txtcn#","#form.txtusername#","#form.txtpassword#")>
Should this method return a value? If not, try:
<cfscript>
obj.dologin("#form.txtcn#","#form.txtusername#","#form.txtpassword#");
</cfscript>
Alternately, if you still can't get it to work, perhaps you could write a
COM wrapper that does any necessary conversions, and call the wrapper from
CF.
