Re: None of the dll's contain type information!

Hi David,
you are right. If DLL's Typelib was imported with Visual Studio it can be
loaded from DLL with

HRESULT LoadTypeLib( const OLECHAR FAR*  szFile,  ITypeLib FAR* FAR*
pptlib);
or
HRESULT LoadTypeLibEx(LPCOLESTR  szFile, REGKIND  regkind,  ITypeLib**
pptlib);

With ITypeLib interface you can get all Typelib's data. Function
"LoadTypeLib" loads Typelib from any module (DLL, TLB, OCX, etc.) . While
writing my wrapper generator (for NJAWIN, which is a paraphrase of jawin) I
used this approach.
