Lee, Not a problem. I really appreciate you helping on this. I will certainly read the KB article now. Thanks and I look forward to your response. Jim

Gotcha, So how to I call it? I know how to create a handle to an automation object, and can call methods of the com objects related to the automation object, but how do I call to a COM object that is not related to any of the automation objects? I tried it and it says it is not...
