I also faced the same problem.
I reinstalled VC++. It got corrected
This may be due to installation option ?
There is one installation option to include ATL during installation - may be that was uncheked ?

It's a known bug in VC5. See Knowledge Base article Q166720 for the fix.

Hi,
There is a DLL called ATLOBJ.dll in a directory under visual Studio's main directory(i think its common).Its a in-proc COM server and it has to be registered to get all the objects supported by the ATL Object Wiz.So just register it by running RegSvr32..

RegSvr32 atlobj.dll

this will do the trick (MohanR@bsci.com)

I have this problem often. Uninstall VC
Log in as administrator, install VC and always use the administrative login....Other logins will not show the wizard objects

If you are creating ATL project, EXE or DLL, after creating, select "insert" menu, select "New Atl Object" menu & add interface. Now when you will select "class view", you will be able to see interface you added. When you right click on the interface, you can add properties or methods.

You can refer book "Beginning ATL COM porgramming by Dr Richrd Grimes".
