Hello achim,

When I got this problem, I din't bother looking around for a solution in the kb, I decided to pass my info as a string (by reference) and use a switch...case in my C++ method to convert my string data to another type and back. Your code will pretty much stay the same, it's just the parameter passing to the method that changes...
