I successfully controlled OpenOffice.org.
Checking my notes (I don't remember the full details), it seems that the 
com machinery interfered with message processing: I was calling 
ProcessMessages in a loop to check if the Cancel button was pressed, but 
it didn't work. I put the loop in a separate thread and I had no further 
problems.
