vbscript

I am writing VB script in which I have to call a function of a COM DLL. The fuction which I want to use is in structure and thus I want to create the object of that structure to access the required function. e.g. I have a dll 'BasicCom.dll', in which

struct abc
{
    bool xyz();
}

Now I want to call xyz(). Is any one have any idea, how to deal with such call in Vb script.
