Viewing Type Library Information

See Also

Type libraries are COM Component definition files that include information about types and objects exposed by an OLE application. A type library can be a stand-alone binary file (.tlb), compiled in an application file (.exe), embedded in an ActiveX control (.ocx), or included in a .dll. Dlls with one or more type libraries are often compiled as object libraries (.olb).

To view type library information

1. In the Class Browser, choose Open or View Additional File.
   
   
2. In the Files of type drop-down list in the Open dialog box, choose Application, *.dll, *.ocx, *.olb, or *.tlb.

The type library information for the selected file is displayed in the Members list.
