You don't say what language the COM component is written in, so I'll assume VB.  Here's what does and doesn't work for me:

set obj = createobject("myserver.thing")
ar = array("A","B")

'In all PassArray variations, the function returns the
'UBound of the passed array.  The VB Function
'definition is included here for each variation...
'
'Public Function PassArray(ByRef vArray() As Variant)
'
'msgbox obj.passarray(ar) 'this fails (still ByRef)
msgbox obj.passarray((ar)) 'this works (forces ByVal)

'Public Function PassArray2(ByRef vArray() As String)
'
'msgbox obj.passarray2(ar) 'this fails (still ByRef)
'msgbox obj.passarray2((ar)) 'this fails (forces ByVal)

'Public Function PassArray3(ByRef vArray As Variant)
'
msgbox obj.passarray3(ar)  
msgbox obj.passarray3((ar))

  Hello
          I have a COM component method which requires an Array as an input
  parameter.  I am attempting to call this method from within my VB Script.
  However I get a Type mismatch.  Is their any way to pass an Array to a COM
  component or is it necessary to change the types to Variants.

  All advise appreciated.

  Thanks

Function ReceiveArray(Arrayname As Variant) as Long
    ReceiveArray = uBound(ArrayName)
End Function

Then the line in the ASP which passes in the array looks like this:

lngReturn = ReceiveArray(ArrayName)

Hope that helps...
