John,
You start with a createobject(). ie:
oTest = createobject('SomeComDll.ComClass')
Then use class PEM.
For examle VFP's filer.dll is a com dll with fileutil class in it :

oFiler = createobject('Filer.FileUtil')
with oFiler
 .SearchPath = sys(5)+curdir()
 .Subfolder = 0 && Not recursive
 .SortBy = 1
 .FileExpression = '*.prg;*.scx'
 .Find(0)
 For ix=1 to .Files.Count
   With .Files(ix)
	? .Path, .Name, .Size, .Attr
   endwith
 endfor
endwith
