Call COM object from classic ASP

Question

How to call COM object from classic ASP? I tried hard but cannot find a good tutorial. Any recommendations?

I am using C# in classic ASP.

If you're using JavaScript:

var obj = new ActiveXObject("Some.Object")

For example, see this page:

• http://www.webreference.com/js/column55/activex.html

This assumes that "Some.Object" has been registered as a COM object (for example, using "regsvr32 /register SomeObject.dll").

For further reading, O'Reilly had a decent book on this and you might consider reading this sample chapter:
