Help with win32 com_error exception

Hi Rich,

I've seen errors like this before.  first off it will help you better if you 
represent your error in hex.  Doing so yields this

FFFFFFFF80020009   <==> -2147352567

0xFFFFFFFF 0x80020009


Anyways, its probably the result of something not being either 
registered/installed correctly (COM issue) or something else.

Under COM I believe thats a standard issue just telling you that something 
unexpected occurred.  I'd take a look at http://msdn.microsoft.com.

Good Luck
