Thanks,
I will start with the "Inside OLE" book.
I really did not make myself clearer earlier - I do not need to code an
application that supports compound documents etc.. I just need to code a
COM server that can create objects that can be embedded in applications that
support such documents (e.g. Word ). The application now uses MFC and does
this similiar to the sample code in the MSDN HierSrvr example.
