I can't find any documentation at all that refers to this behavior, and I've gone through at least two dozen articles on late binding in VB and VBS. The behavior cannot be duplicated in C#, because C# doesn't do the automatic late binding. You have to invoke the lower-level APIS directly. I was able to call the component from C#, but because it is up to me to handle the return value, the same problem does not occur. I did learn that you can work aroundthis issue by using parens in the VB/VBS code: Dim testSrvObj, what, value, retvalue Set testSrvObj = CreateObject("TestSrv.Application") value = "ABCValue" what = "ABC" WScript.Echo "What", what WScript.Echo "Value", value testSrvObj.SetValue (what), (value) WScript.Echo "What", what WScript.Echo "Value", value testSrvObj.SetValue "ABC", (value) WScript.Echo "What", what WScript.Echo "Value", value retvalue = testSrvObj.GetValue("ABC") WScript.Echo "What", what WScript.Echo "Value", value WScript.Echo "Return", retvalue -- Tim Roberts, [EMAIL PROTECTED] Providenza & Boekelheide, Inc. _______________________________________________ Python-win32 mailing list Python-win32@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-win32
