VBA function: createObject

createObject(progId) creates an Active X Object that is identified by progId. (I am still not sure what the difference is to an «ordinary» COM object).
The prog ID is stored in the Registry under HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\<Prog.id>

PowerShell equivalent

The PowerShell equivalent of createObject() is the cmdlet new-object: The statement set obj = createObject('foo.bar') would be the following in PowerShell: 
PS C:\> $comObj = new-object -COMObject 'foo.bar'

TODO

Compare with getObject()
