About COMView
COMView has the following functions included:

shows COM related entries in registry
allows modification of these entries
shows type library information
COMView is able to generate ASM include files from type libraries
"dispatch helper" includes may be generated to simplify calling dispatchonly interfaces and implementing events sinks.
COM objects can be created, supported interfaces are shown
Verification of registry information is included
OLE container is implemented allowing OLE controls to be viewed and "in-place-activated"
Object properties may be edited and methods be executed.
Object model exposed by an application/control may be walked.
may connect to source interfaces and display incoming events

Some of the functions are described in this help file in more detail. But no introduction into COM is given here. So if you are new to COM you possibly may find some explanations a bit confusing and not very helpful. In this case search for more basic sources in the net, which should be no problem at all.

WARNING : Use COMView with great care! With COMView you may easily modify critical registry entries. And creating objects, changing properties or executing methods may cause severe data losses! If you don't know what you are doing, you may easily get your computer to act "strange" (to say the least). In any case save your work before starting this app!
