If I missed someone answering this, forgive me, but in CF8 and 9 64-bit, COM Objects will not work...no work around. It has to do with how MS is depreciating com objects and is out of CF's control. I had an issue with this about a year ago when a client I was working for migrated from 32 bit to 64 bit.

It's also possible that PHP uses a marshaling layer like the .NET integration service (which runs on a TCP listening port) that makes it a non-issue. But CF's implementation of COM has always been JNI - which is a native Java thingy. FYI - you should move away from COM if at all possible. It has been deprecated for a long long time by now. -Mark -----Original Message----- From: Stefan Richter [mailto:ste...@flashcomguru.com] Sent: Monday, April 18, 2011 11:19 AM To: cf-talk Subject: Re: Creating COM object - troubleshooting Thank you. Is this a restriction via CF then or why is it so easy to do it in PHP? Is it because CF will run in 64bit mode and PHP is not?
