Question.NET COM component to replace existing Pin

I've just been handed the task of replacing an existing COM component.
It has to stay as a COM component as we have no ability to change the caller.
It has to able to call a COM component, that again we can't alter. i.e. where changing the middle part of an existing process and have to do so transparently.

I've been doing some background research, and it looks like I can create a .NET COM component easy enough. Thumbs Up | :thumbsup: I've got a few q's though.

When you create the COM interface and class they have GUID's, do these GUID's have to match the existing COM component? Or is it when the caller makes the COM call the OSConfused | :confused: determines the component based on name?

Another requirement is that the final COM call is 'dynamic' in that the method name we have to call might change, assuming the method will act on the same data is this doable?
