I'm trying to call this COM method:

Public Function DoSomething(ByRef StringStuff As Variant, **ByRef Out_Data As Variant**) As Boolean

Out_Data gets defined and populated in the method body as an ADODB.Recordset (2.6).

I've tried several different ways I can think of, but still can't seem to get that recordset object out, or in for that matter.

Any ideas?

Thanks...
