Cool. In the meantime, to close this thread, I have decided for my project
to list the relevant classes explicitly.

It was about testing for all sub-classes of a specific class whether they
could be constructed from a certain argument (i.e. if their constructors
don't throw an error). Since I control all classes in the project, I found
it less obscure and painful to write

  Dim hObj As MyClass

  Try hObj = New MySubClass1(Arg)
  If Not Error Then Return hObj
  Try hObj = New MySubClass2(Arg)
  If Not Error Then Return hObj
  ...
  Error.Raise(("No compatible implementation found"))

Regards,
Tobi
