Yup, exactly.  Then as processing params, skip or ignore depending on which 
user plumped for.

Ahso.  Wasn't doing proper error checking in 
get_accessible_child/get_accessible_children, 
and they wern't returning null string if they failed.

Try comPlugin0.72_100218.zip.

and the modified comPluginDemoScriptAccessible.powerpro therein.

Not unusual AFAIK, for a menu item to have a name but no value.

Yup, that's what that function does.

That means my retry code isn't doing it's stuff.  I'll have to find some

could be coming back VT_EMPTY or VT_NULL, which dll in comPlugin0.72_100218.zip 
not returns as null string. If still producing error, should now tell you the

Darn, that was a silly mistake.  Fixed.

Maybe; let me now if it still gets trouble.

Thanks for all the testing.
