Hmm... Maybee the problem is more general. The following code also fails:

    Dim myUnmanagedObject As Object = CreateObject("...")
    MyFunction(myUnmanagedObject.collection)

Wheras this code works:

    Dim myUnmanagedObject As Object = CreateObject("...")
    Dim myCollection As Object = myUnmanagedObject.collection
    MyFunction(myCollection)

I suppose it works since its okay to set the collection on the myCollection
variable. But why would .NET do that?

Hi,

I wonder if somebody else has stumbled upon this problem:=20

I've got C++ COM object with a property that is a collection of other
objects of the same type:

item.items

In my .NET application I recurs through this tree structure. Going out =
to
the first leaf everything works fine. When the recursion turns back to =
the
root I get an exception telling me "a read-only property can't be set". =

From the stack trace it seems like .NET, for some strange reason, has =
tried
to set the items property on the item object. My guess is that it is
something wrong with the proxy object created by Visual Studio.
