Using oleview.exe (from the ResKit) and the ITypeLib Viewer, I've
extracted the following info:

          \,,,/
          (o o)
------oOOo-(_)-oOOo------
(1) interface IXMLDOMDocument, async property:
[id(0x0000003d), propput, helpstring("flag for asynchronous download")]
HRESULT async([in] VARIANT_BOOL isAsync);

(2) interface IXSLProcessor, input property:
[id(0x00000002), propput, helpstring("XML input tree to transform")]
HRESULT input([in] VARIANT pVar);
-------------------------

Consider the following in Perl:

  $dom->{async} = 1;                        # correct
  $xslProc->{input} = $xmlDoc;              # error
  $xslProc->LetProperty(input => $xmlDoc);  # correct

Is there anything in the type viewer information telling me which syntax
to use in each instance?
