Does anyone know if there is any good book on MFC for OLE programming ? I
have been reading Inside OLE (2nd Edition) but it is talking about OLE on
COM level, I don't know how to integrate those knowledges into MFC. I
know that in Inside Visual C++ 4.0 there are several chapters dealing
with OLE but I don't seem to understand that.

I've found that the easiest start with MFC/COM programming is chapter 23 =
in Kruglinski's book (Inside Visual C++ 4.0). It gives a good =
introduction on COM and what possibilities there are for COM programming =
with MFC. I've used that approach for writing my first COM object (a =
matrix storage class for doubles which uses virtual memory, DLL server), =
which is available upon request. However, using such a COM object is a =
wee bit more than a "no-brainer" as stated by Kruglinski, especially =
when COM objects are being used in multithreaded programs.
If you're a member of MSDN (Microsoft Developers Network) there are some =
pretty good articles on the library CD concerning COM/MFC programming, =
which give you also a starting point.

If you can get hold of the articles written by Nigel Thompson on the MSDN=
. These are exatly what you are looking for. I found them invaluable whe=
n I first started out with COM and MFC. I think the word to search for is=
MFC/COM.

You might take a look at OLE 2.X In Application Development published by
Que. It discusses using MFC to implement OLE.

I found the online tutorial on OLE Automation and OLE control programming
easy to understand and very helpful.

I do have such a book, but unfortunately, it is at home.
I will forward your msg to my home so that I can reply to you from
there. I do remember that it is published by Que and comes with one
or two floppies. Perhaps you can ask Que for a catalogue. I might
add, though, that it is not as helpful as I would have liked. I think
you will do much better with Microsoft's own documentation that comes
with their products.

There doesn't seem to be a really good book on this subject, though Mike =
Blaszczak's "Revolutionary Guide to Win32" and Adam Denning's "OLE =
Controls Inside and Out" both touch on parts of it. The best source to =
date is the various articles on the MSDN CD or Microsoft's OLE =
programming home page at http://www.microsoft.com/oledev. Part of the =
problem is that both OLE and MFC are changing so fast that all the books =
seem to be incomplete, out of date or both.

No one mentioned Mastering Visual C++ 4.0, the MS course CD with full
syllabus for MCP/Solution Developer. It covers COM with many
samples.
