[about finding typelibs for COM objects starting from the progid]
COM IDEs usually include a COM typelib browser which lists the type libraries
installed on the system and offering to "import" them into a project.
For example, PythonWin has such a utility which creates the win32com wrapper
for the selected typelib. AFAIU these utilities scan the registry to find
registered typelibs. I have attached some code that takes a somewhat different
approach (but it could possibly be a starting point to write such a browser).
The script tries to find the typelibrary starting with a progid. For some
progids this approach works, for others it doesn't (Word, for example).
