Are you sure it matters? "A SafeArray is called safe because it contains 
information about the bounds of each array dimension, and limits access to 
array elements within those bounds."

More from <http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms675103%28VS.85%29.aspx> 
(You should probably review that whole page):

"When the ADO API Reference says a method or property takes or returns an 
array, it means the method or property takes or returns a SafeArray, not a 
native C/C++ array."

"For example, the second parameter of the Connection object OpenSchema method 
requires an array of Variant values. Those Variant values must be passed as 
elements of a SafeArray, and that SafeArray must be set as the value of another 
Variant. It is that other Variant that is passed as the second argument of 
OpenSchema."

"As further examples, the first argument of the Find method is a Variant whose 
value is a one-dimensional SafeArray; each of the optional first and second 
arguments of AddNew is a one-dimensional SafeArray; and the return value of the 
GetRows method is a Variant whose value is a two-dimensional SafeArray."
