Anyone actively working on ITypeInfo_fnInvoke and VariantChangeType?

before I start trying to get up to speed on it.

Congratulations.  My company's program now gets somewhere with 
the builtin ole dlls (thanks to fixes in the out-of-process COM) 
so I am interested in trying to get it to work completely with 
them (especially since the native ones no longer work)

What I have just fallen over is some VB that calls a method that 
results in 
ITypeInfo_fnInvoke failed to convert param 0 to VT_VARIANT|
VT_BYREF from VT_I2.

So I changed the VB and ended up with 
ITypeInfo_fnInvoke failed to convert param 0 to VT_VARIANT|
VT_BYREF from VT_VARIANT|VT_BYREF.

Now it seems to me that it ought at least to handle the second 
case, but that probably demonstrates that I don't know what I am 
talking about.

Anyway; if someone is already working on that sort of thing then 
there is probably little point in me trying to learn it all.  
However if no-one is then I guess I will start trying to learn 
it.

Comments?
