I really didn't know that this call-out functionality existed. I know GCI allows for invoking COM from UV. UCI has been equated to GCI but I don't think they're the same at all. Does Unidata support GCI? What is this "E" item syntax called, and where can I find a doc on it? Does Universe support this "E" item syntax? Does anyone have any performance data for this "E" syntax? I'm wondering if DLLs are truly linked and they stay in memory, or if they're dynamically referenced on every invocation. The former is painful only on first execution. The latter would alwould be painful and we might as well Execute/SH. Heck, I can see entire libraries of new functionality being created with this mechanism. Deployment would be Muuuuuuuuuuuch easier than GCI. Thanks.
