Meanwhile The following Almost Identical Code works in WPF
Dim comObject =comObject = Microsoft.VisualBasic.Interaction.CreateObject("pfcls.pfcAsyncConnection")
Dim conn = comObject.Connect(Nothing, Nothing, Nothing, 1)
Has anyone been able to connect to Pro/Engineer from a Silverlight Application and How?
