A longer time ago I wrote here how to simulate GetObject with ABAP. Here is now a variation to simulate CreateObject on the same way.
Another very interesting aspect of this possibility is the using of classes, which are not allowed under normal circumstances. The security options of the SAP logon disables the instantiation of some classes e.g. like SapROTWr.SapROTWrapper.1.
With this way you can use any class you want. This example shows how to use SAP GUI Scripting inside ABAP.
Hint: This is not a guide to open back doors or to bypass security rules. It will be only use available standards and their unusual combination.
