Subject: Re: classes in WIN32OLE

WIN32OLE basically provides an interface to the OLE type libraries in
Windows, so you're going to want to be able to see what classes,
methods, and properties those libraries provide.

If you plan on doing work with Microsoft Office applications the best
thing to do would be to open an app (Excel, for example), go to Tools
=> Macro => Visual Basic Editor, Then go to View => Object Browser
(make sure you have a document open in the Office app, or nothing will
show up.) There you can see everything available to the object you've
created (i.e. WIN32OLE.new('excel.application')).

This program:
http://homepage1.nifty.com/markey/ruby/win32ole/index_e.html allows you
to browse other type libraries, and I believe there are other apps
available to view this information.

Hope that helps.

Thanks,

Nate
