I borrow ahmd's code to make a question about CLSID_ShellLink
The steps I started to learn about COM are done as above
COInittialise->CoCreate->QueryInterface etc
There are interfaces that have CLSID_ as CLSID_ShellLink above
but there are classes not having such CLSID_ specified in msdn, what should I do to complete the steps to call methods from the interfaces I'd like to use ?

Thank you

as It is not listed in msdn, I mean it also doesn't appear in any header file

#import directive
