Siegfried, Thanks for your help.
I got the CLSID of the application, through CLSID, I got the progid of this application from regedit, But I still cannot get any thing about the application from OLE/COM Object Viewer. At last, I found a good way to view it from OLE/COM Object Viewer, File/View TypeLib... and choose the application (.exe file), and then I got what I want: detailed information about the interface, like methods, paramter list... Thank you. On 6/3/05, Siegfried Heintze <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > If it is in regedit, then it is probably in the OLE/COM viewer too.
