OLE in c55ee reference problem

Hey
Im currently trying to use a ocx in ole control. All the functions
that ive tried to call in the form ?ole{'Function(1,2,3)'} worked fine
except for the ones where i need to pass a reference to a variable.

One such function is GetParam(BSTR ParamName,VARIANT * Value) C++
prototype

My code is as follows:
bind('Value',Value)
test = 'GetParam("IPADRESS",&Value)'
result = ?terminal{test}

test is of type string(thought i have tried cstring etc)

The value of test stay unchanged.
I have also verified that the ocx works from C++ examples.

Is the above code correct to pass a string variable by reference?
Any other ideas?
