VT_PVARIANT, Is this a bug?

I just used VS .NET 2003 to create an ATL project with one Simple COM object
which supports ConnectionPoints. I added one event lets; say
Notify(VARIANT* pDisp, BSTR* bstrName).

Then I chose "Add Connection Point" for the IDE to create the Fire_xxx
functions for me. From here on when I compile I get error.VT_PVARIANT and
VT_PBSTR not defined

I looked at the implementation of Fire_Notify() function and noticed that
the IDE has generated this code form:

......
avarParams[1].vt = VT_PVARIANT;
.....
avarParams[0].vt = VT_PBSTR;
....
hr = pConnection->Invoke(1, .....
.....

I cannot find where VT_PVARIANT and VT_PBSTR are defined. I fixed the
problem by changing that to VT_VARIANT | VT_BYREF and VT_BSTR | VT_BYREF and
now it works.

Why the hell the IDE Wizard is putting the code that it cannot compile. Is
this some bug???

thanks insdvance,
