I'm populating a SortedList with the Name property of objects from the SQLDMO
Com interop classes. While these are supposed to be plain old strings (I
think), I am getting an error any time I attempt to use keyed access to the
objects.

mySortedList.Add(myTable, myTable.Name)
If mySortedList.Contains(myTable.Name) Then ' <-- Throws an error
... do some stuff
End If

This is totally weird, because I've had no problem using SortedList in the
past. What's up with SQLDMO 'string' properties that causes this? Is some
COM variant to .NET string type conversion nuance the issue?

Any help is appreciated,

Bill House

BTW, further testing has revealed that if I mySortedList.Add("test", "test")
before trying to add any string properties from SQLDMO objects, the issue
seems to disappear. Apparently, there is something amiss with a SortedList
whose first item is derived (even using CStr()) from a SQLDMO Name property
(table, procedure, whatever). Personally, I think this is a BUG. :-)
