ActiveX/COM and /Command
[1/2] from: ric::orbitalogic::com at: 23-Feb-2002 10:57
'elp!
I have a proposed project that would involve integrating REBOL with various
MS Windows programs that use ActiveX/COM, namely Excel and QuickBooks.
I have /Command, which supports loading .dll's, but I can't figure out how
to load a COM .dll.
Has anyone successfully loaded and operated a COM dll?
I'd appreciate any guidance.
Thanks,

Hi Ric,

I don't know if anyone has, but I imagine it will take a bit of low level
coding to deal with COM interfaces successfully. Probably not very
straightforward. If there are example COM bindings for another language,
like Python, Ruby, or Euphoria, that would be a place to start looking.
