Great work. Still usable and viable under windows 10. I used Pelles C and was able to add speech to a project with minimal fuss.

This COM/ActiveX helper library is a great piece of work but it could with a little bit more documentation, I was pretty well starting from cold with COM/ActiveX (embedded is my forte, not PCs) and the MSDN docs and pretty much everything else are C++-based or plain crap. Everything is here and it works very well - when you have finally figured it out. I took the simple example, bolted it together with the code (no .dlls needed, just compile it) and tried to make it work for my application (RealTerm as a server) using VC++ 2012. It builds very well but getting all the syntax sorted in your head takes a bit longer. In the end I used the Matlab example - which compiled and ran first time in Matlab R2016b, kudos for that RealTerm! - to interrogate RealTerm and reverse-engineered what "disphelper" was doing from that! (FYI the object name of RealTerm is "realterm.realtermintf" in case you need it). If you are looking for a very nice chunk of 'C' code to be able to load and run COM/ActiveX libraries, that is well-written and well-structured and after a bit of ferreting is pretty well complete then you have found Nirvana here.
