Forums Scripts & Popups COM Object

Hello,

Where can i find a listing of current COM objects avaible? I mean like Excel.Application is one and where can I find more?

Thanks for the help

Well thats not really an mIRC question. You need a 3rd party application that can do that. Usually you can find such a tool in a Visual Basic compiler. The one I use is the one included with Microsoft Visual Studio .NET.

In addition to codemastr's suggestion (F2 in VB as long as you've referenced what you want to use), you can also get to such a tool in Word, Excel, PowerPoint (Alt-F11, then F2).

Bear in mind, however, that not all objects revealed there are COM objects. For instance, if you are playing with ADO (ActiveX Data Objects) to play with a database, you can't instantiate a Field object, even though there is such an object in the ADO object model.

/comopen dbMyDatabase ADODB.Connection
/comopen rsMyTable ADODB.RecordSet
/comopen fldTest ADODB.Field

The first two will work and are usable; the third one doesn't work because, although Field is an object, it's not a COM object.
