Yes, pcall is definitely a way to go. I recommend using the "disp" class. Try its "info".
However, I think it does not directly support arrays. But the good news is that it is all open, and you can use the debugger to trace the "invoke" and the part where it converts variants to J objects. You should be able to user "oleaut" functions to iterate SAFEARRAY and apply variant conversion getting J boxed array memberwise. --- bill lam <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I tried again > wd 'olemethod ooh base arr0' > where arr0 is vb ole server method return an array > > Public Function arr0() As Variant > Dim array() > arr0 = array > End Function > > but wd give an "unsupported type" error.
