HRESULT Lookup Tool...
Alexei Kvasov
I have just finish the first version of HRPlus Tool - replacement for MS
ErrorLookup.
HRPlus may be helpful for those of you who is working with COM and COM
related stuff (as MTS, MQ, ADO,OLE-DB, ASP, DTC, Crypto API and so on).
The HRPLUS utility retrieves a system error message or COM module error
message based on the hexadecimal or decimal Error Code or HRESULT value
entered.
HRPLUS is inspired by UI and Implementation of MS ErrLookup (Thanks for the
idea to Decoder simple application from MS SDK).
List of features and advantages you can find at the bottom of this letter.
