Is the exception you're seeing "Error while invoking Item"?  Just want to make sure I'm seeing the same thing and the actual exception is cut off in your snippet below.

There is an error in RC 1:

IronPython 2.0 (2.0.0.0) on .NET 2.0.50727.1433
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import System
>>> wa = System.Activator.CreateInstance(System.Type.GetTypeFromProgID("Word.Application"))
>>> wd = wa.Documents.Add()
>>> wd.Variables.Add("foo")
<System.__ComObject (Variable) object at 0x000000000000002B>
>>> wd.Variables["foo"]
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>

In IronPython Beta 5 it worked as expected:

IronPython 2.0 Beta (2.0.0.5000) on .NET 2.0.50727.1433
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import System
>>> wa = System.Activator.CreateInstance(System.Type.GetTypeFromProgID("Word.Application"))
>>> wd = wa.Documents.Add()
>>> wd.Variables.Add("foo")
<System.__ComObject (Variable) object at 0x000000000000002B>
>>> wd.Variables["foo"]
<System.__ComObject (Variable) object at 0x000000000000002C>

Best regards,
