Hello,
I have to find a GUID of type library (or type library name) for a given OLE object name. I.e. for 'Excel.Applicaiton' it should return either 'Microsoft Excel 9.0 Object LIbrary' or its GUID. If possible, without creating OLE object 'Excel.Application'! I digged in the registry and didn't find information associated with "sections" named 'Excel.Application' that allow to retrive this information.. But OLE does this somehow..
If there is no Perl way of doing it, could you please suggest C API name that allows to do it?

Thanks in advance for your answers!
