ObjCreate from .tlb

[Fragaholic 0]

I have an app that I use from VB via COM, and now I would like to use AutoIt in place of VB.

When using VB, I start by adding a 'Reference', which allows me to register the app by selecting the .TLB. Then i can create an object with Set myObj = CreateObject("QaDoc").

In AutoIt, is use $myObj = ObjCreate("CM4D.QaDoc"), which does not work.

How do I replace the 'Add Reference' step in AutoIt?

When I use oleview.exe, the app only appears in the Type Libraries section, and not in the Application IDs section. I have access to the developers of the COM app, so if I need them to change something (a registration?), that is a possibility.

AddReference when used on a COM object in a .Net project will actually generate a wrapper assembly that your code can make calls on. AutoIt doesn't have that kind of functionality.
