SYMPTOMS
========

When calling the method of a queued component instance that takes in an object
as one of its arguments, the following event log error is generated on the
client computer:

  Event Type: Error
  Event Source: COM+
  Event Category: QC Marshal
  Event ID: 4250
  Date: 11/22/1999
  Time: 6:35:42 PM
  User: N/A
  Computer: EDJEZ5
  Description:
  An unsupported object reference was used during a method call to a QC
  component. The object reference should either be a QC recorder or support
  IPersistStream.
  QI for IPersistStream
  Server Application ID: {54535BAC-9DC4-4EC0-957E-3193CEA2C785}
  Server Application Name: Orders
  Error Code = 0x80004002 : No such interface supported
  COM+ Services Internals Information: File: .\marshalinterceptor.cpp, Line: 210
  Data: 0000: 9f302940 48b3244b a08eb2bb 63b1b32b -->

CAUSE
=====

This error will appear if the argument object reference is not:

- An instance of a queued component recorder.

  -or-

- A reference of an object that supports IPersistStream.

RESOLUTION
==========

To resolve this problem, make sure that the argument object supports
IPersistStream (in Visual Basic 6.0, you can do this by marking the class as
"persistable") or that it also is an instance of a queued component.

STATUS
======

This behavior is by design.
