You can call these from within RBase using VBScript to instantiate your com object. You can find various scripts that will show you the mechanics of calling a script from within RBase code on my website www.byerley.net and follow the Bauerlie Development Link to Download and Support. The Script that will yield the most to you is the RBmessage box script. They all have the mix of RBase code and VBScript samples to show you how to integrate it in your app. If your COM Object has to return a value, it is a little trickier, but can be done as is shown in the aforementioned Script.
