Calling COM objects

[Todd]

I've got a regular COM DLL that I wrote in VB6 that I'm
trying to use in VB.Net. It's giving me a "Type Mismatch"
error when I try to assign a .Net string value to the COM
property, which is also defined as a string. Any ideas?

..NET uses Unicode strings, while I believe VB was ASCII. I would try coding
the string as ASCII, but I am not sure how this is accomplished. If I can
get any time (not real sure about this), I will try to write a simple COM
DLL and try from .NET.

My own stupid mistake. It works fine. I was calling the
wrong COM class.
