mmm, exactly what i thought - xsi complainns that the com instance has
no attribute "Parameters" ! In the example in my first post, i must
surround

oTo.ActivePrimitive.ConstructionHistory.Find("hairGenOp")


with GetValue to get it to work. The above line returns an object
Operator (according to ClassName()), but i cannot get to the
Parameters.Or am i just very tired?
Thanks heaps for the reply
