I'm not aware of one. However, OleView is pretty self-explanatory. What problem are you having?

Any reference resources?

Thanks Brian,

I learned from others that OLE Viewer could be used to help in COM
development. But I have never used OLE Viewer before, so I can not get any
idea about how we will use it.

So, I am looking for some tutorials about the functions of OLE Viewer, and
how we could make use of it in COM development to analyze issues.

BTW: how do you OLE Viewer?

regards,
George

George, just run it and see what it does. That's how the rest of us figure out how things work.

s/oleview_setup.exe

Thanks Brian,

I have downloaded and installed. But it does not contain any document or
help information. For example, from help menu, there is only version
information.

Any help document for OLE Viewer?

regards,
George

Now open something. Something OLE, that you would view with an OLE Viewer.
It could be an OLE compound document file, a type library, an ActiveX dll or
control, ... IIRC, you should also be able to browse the list of registered
OLE components from the system and user registries (HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT, and
friends)
