This is telling you that one of the params has been declared by the
typelibrary as an integer, but Python can't convert it:

Hrrrm - Im not sure there the Nones came from?

The numeric codes are the VT_* and PARAMFLAGS_* constants.  These
constants are available in pythoncom.
3,0 == VT_I4, <no flags>
5,0 == VT_R8, <no flags>
8,48 == BT_BSTR, PARAMFLAG_FHASDEFAULT|PARAMFLAG_FOPT
2,48 == VT_I2, PARAMFLAG_FHASDEFAULT|PARAMFLAG_FOPT

So I can't see why this would need to change - just change those
defaul params and see if it works.

What COM object is this?

Mark.
