So let me answer my question..
You idiot, RTFM!!!
There is documentation on the use of Variants in the COM section. Lots
of good support even for passing ByRef.
An example of using a COM array is like this:
$PSearchCriteria[0] = "THIS";
$PSearchCriteria[1] = "THAT";
$SearchCriteria = new Variant($PSearchCriteria, VT_ARRAY);
Here is a result array passed by reference:
$PResult = array();
$Result = new Variant($PResult, VT_ARRAY | VT_BYREF);
There is no support for multi dimensioanl arrays
