Why do you want to do such a thing ? How did you 'initialize' your VARIANT ? And BTW, don't use VARIANT, that's bad ;P

Yes you're right, I was a little bit too 'extreme' in my answer. In fact, it is because I saw people using it to circumvent C++ type safety (to "make life easier"). That was quite scary...

I agree with that. I've seen this before too. Specifically people casting pointers to C++ classes to
longs and storing it in aVARIANTand passing it through COM interfaces; talk about missing the point of COM.Steve
