VB.Net WebService to VB6 COM Object - Variant Parameter

I have a VB6 COM object, "Project1.Class1", that takes in a variant by
reference.

Function COMObjectMethod(ByRef strVariable)
strVariable = "xyz"
End Function

In the .NET WebService if I add a reference to this COM object it works
fine. However, if I use late binding I get "Type mismatch".

'Dim strVar
'Dim strVar as string
'Dim strVar as Object
'Dim strVar as New Object
'Dim strVar as VariantType

obj = CreateObject("Project1.Class1")
Call obj.COMObjectMethod(strVar)

I have tried all the above declarations and all of them failed.

Any idea on how to do this?

Thanks,
Kumar
