Object Model ExtractionIs there any tool available that will allow me to extract the information in
the Object Browser (i.e. when I hit F2) into a file I can save? TIA Add "TypeLib Information" reference to your project. I don't know how to use
this library.

I believe there is also code out there (google it) for a roll your own object browser, whcih you could use to accomplish the task yourself... heres one I pulled up... http://www.jsware.net/jsware/vbcode.php3#tlbc Type Library Reader / Object Browser The object browser in VB and in MS Word provides a view into type libraries - binary documentation of COM objects. The file TLBINF32.DLL provides that functionality and is redistributable. TLBINF32.DLL wraps the functionality in OLEAUT32.DLL that provides the ability to read type libraries. TLBINF32.DLL can be used by VB programmers who want to build their own object browser or otherwise read type libraries. But it's actually probably easier to use OLEAUT32.DLL directly than it is to use TLBINF32.DLL. (And it also avoids needing to ship a 150 KB file that's incompatible with the VB5 version.) As is so often the case, writing the code is not nearly so difficult as is finding thorough, accurate documentation. The code here includes a sample program and a single, compact class that reads typelibs and extracts the information into orderly data structures. (This is essentially the same code used in the Typelib reader ActiveX DLL on the VBScript samples page.) This code is designed for use in an object browser or for object interface research. In other words, it extracts information and organizes it in accord with what's relevant for an object browser, as opposed to just reading all typelib data and "dumping" it as a list of interfaces like Microsoft's OLEView.exe Type Library browser does.
