Default Viewing IDL

Is it possible to examine the IDL of a .XLL file?

I tried using OLE/COM Object Viewer, version 2.10.059, on

J:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\OFFICE11\Library\Analysis\ANALYS32.XLL

Result was

IMoniker::BindToObject failed on the file moniker created from ("J:\Program
Files\Microsoft Office\OFFICE11\Library\Analysis\ANALYS32.XLL"),
Unspecified error
E_FAIL ($80004005)

No. It isn't possible since it is NOT a COM component.

[You said "IDL" but believe you meant a Type Library. It is possible the
authors provided a Type Library.]

An .xll is a regular "WinAPI-type" Dll usually written using C/C++.
