Try posting the question in one of the coding sub forums, the masm32 subforum is for project related questions.

Quote from: MSDNThe MIDL Compiler

Depending on the contents of your IDL file, the MIDL compiler will generate any of the following files.

A C-language proxy/stub file, an interface identifier file, a DLL data file, and a related header file for a custom COM interface. The MIDL compiler generates these files when it encounters the object attribute in an interface attribute list. For more detailed information on these files, see Files Generated for a COM Interface.

A compiled type library (.tlb) file and related header file. MIDL generates these files when it encounters a library statement in the IDL file. For general information about type libraries, see Contents of a Type Library, in the Automation Programmer's Reference.
Please post your idl file.

The need to read this post and offer no real suggestions has ended.

I'd share how I managed if other greens asked...

The forum is a self help oriented board.  Sometimes, you find the answer yourself.  Even if you do, it would be nice if you posted the answer for the next person.

We have an interesting job here.  We share and impart knowledge and wisdom.  So at times, we teach you techniques to help yourself, rather than give code for a task.

Also, I asked for you to post your IDL file to provide more help.  Any reason not to?
