I'm getting a COM Object, but I'm not totally sure which COM Interface(s) it
implements.

How can I find this out?

From where?

You can use the appropriate language operator (is in C#, TypeOf .. Is
in VB)  to check if a certain interface is implemented.

That won't necessarily work for me, because I may or may not have com
wrappers already created for the COM interface. I currently have a
System.__ComObject
I get the Feeling that I'll have to go through the
System.Runtime.Interip.Marshal class to get my information.  But I'm not
totally sure how to go about it.

OK, what do you have? The IID? If so you can probably use
Marshal.Queryinterface().
