	IndexOfName	Returns the index of the first item in the list with a specified name.
	InheritsFrom	Determines the relationship of two object types.
	InitInstance	Initializes a newly allocated object instance to all zeros and initializes the instance's virtual method table pointer.
	Insert	Inserts a name/Variant pair at a specified position.
