The last answer in this[^] thread seems to have a solution although perhaps if you edit your question to explain exactly what it is you are trying to do, and why, someone might suggest a better method.

Solution 3

To add to Henry's answer, the interop dll should get auto-generated if you add a COM reference via the Visual Studio Add Reference dialog. Then you can use the COM types normally.
