returning list of strings from Python COM to Visual basic 6

I can now pass and return quite a few types except object instances: my
python code gets to the point where I do:


def Get_Obj(self):
.....
        return an_object

My VB code looks like

Dim obj as Variant

obj = acom.Get_Obj()


I get an "unexpected Python error ..... Objects of type 'instance' can not
be converted to a COM VARIANT"

Is there a way out ?

Thanks,

Philippe
