Thanks Shawn,
I,m a lot humbler and a little wiser now. Yeah this COM stuff is fun and I like extending KiX without having to install custom DLLs. Yeah, I understand that there are external dependencies with COM, but they are the standard stuff that can be easily managed in a corporate environment.

Maybe what we should have is a handy index of the interface property methods (or links to) of commonly used objects posted in the COM forum.
