Default Get an object interface from com dll


Hi to All

I have some problem to get an object interface from com dll in VB6.

In the object Browser I see:

Code:
Sub CreateIterator(iid As GUID, ppv As Any)

This is the IDL description:


Code:
[
object,
uuid(1E8701D0-258F-43ED-9EDC-434FD16E922D),
helpstring("Switcher Object")
] interface IBMDSwitcher : IUnknown
{
HRESULT CreateIterator([in] REFIID iid, [out] LPVOID* ppv);

I can't call CreateIterator from vb6. I get the error
"Variable uses an automation type not supported in Visual Basic"
I think the problem is the GUID parameter.

How I can get this interface?

Please Help me.

Thanks to all
