.progid - The object name.

.result - The value returned by the COM object member after the call

.error - The error code if any.

.errortext - The error text if any.

.argerr - TODO

.dispatch - [[$true]] if this is a dispatch pointer.

.unknown - [[$true]] if this is a unknown pointer.

*$com(name/N,varname)*

Returns value of the specified variable name.

*Parameters*

name/N - The connection name or the Nth connection.

varname - Name of the referenced variable.

*$com(name,member,method,type1,value1,...,typeN,valueN)*

This calls a member of an open COM connection with the specified method and parameters.

Returns: 1 = ok, 0 = fail.

*Parameters*

member - Member name.

method - Combination of the following values added together:

<pre>

             1 = DISPATCH_METHOD

             2 = DISPATCH_PROPERTYGET

             4 = DISPATCH_PROPERTYPUT

             8 = DISPATCH_PROPERTYPUTREF

</pre>

type - The variable type, can be: i1, i2, i4, ui1, ui2, ui4, int, uint, r4, r8, cy, date, decimal, bool, bstr, variant, dispatch, unknown, error.

<pre>

             VB equivalents are: boolean, byte, currency, date, double, integer, long, single, string, variant.

             To make a variable by reference, use * in the type name, eg. i1*

             To assign a name to a variable for later reference after a call, append it to the type, eg. i1* varname

             When using a variant you must also specify the variable type after it, eg. variant bool.

</pre>

value - The value assigned to the variable type.
