I'd start by seeing what methods are available.  Stick in something
like:

  p oRecord.StringData(1).ole_methods
  p oRecord.StringData(1).ole_get_methods

(For some reason, these can return different data, so it's good
to look at both.)

You may see the right way of setting the property that you're
looking for.
