With the help of GNATCOM, I created a simple package that allows access to
all the "managed classes" of Microsoft's .NET platform. That includes all
the OS services, GUI classes, etc. etc. etc.
It is a just a quick example that creates a dialog box and pops it on the
screen.
You will need to have .NET installed on your system, currently that means
installing the .NET SDK from MS's site. (But the source may prove
interesting even if you don't have the SDK)
The example is on the GNATCOM page at http://www.adapower.com/gnatcom
All COM objects created using GNATCOM are usable from .NET
