How to Export a Type Library

Posted on January 29, 2008 by Jeff Fitzsimons

It had been awhile since I’d exported a TypeLib, so I had forgotten how! The world has moved on to .Net and its “tlxexp.exe” tool, which is for .Net/CLR assemblies only.

1) Download OLEVIEW.EXE the OLE/COM Object Viewer

2) Run OLEVIEW, then double-click the Type Library in question.
