> Run bindcom e.g. on XL5EN32.olb
results in:
GNATCOM.ERRORS.COM_ERROR
HRESULT (2147654730) : Error loading type library/DLL.

I ran a different Ada binding generator on XL5EN32.OLB and it ran to
completion.  I also ran both on EXCEL9.OLB, where both generated
partial results before complaining and quiting.

Is there a naming convention or something or how should a person
learn that excel's tlb is named XL5EN32.OLB?  That's not very obvious.

The two files were:
EXCEL9  .OLB  638976 03/19/99 13:00:32
XL5EN32 .OLB  228864 01/06/99 16:50:18
