Creating a header file

A header file is created from a COM/ActiveX component by simply executing Tlb2Ch.exe. The tool takes one or more ProgIDs as parameter and by default the output is dumped to stdout:

Tlb2Ch.exe "Word.Application" > word.ch

The output looks as follows:

01:   ////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// 
02:   // 
03:   // Automatically generated Header file. 
04:   // 
05:   // Program ID:     word.application
