In Delphi I am missing properties and procedures

[User (Legacy)]

Hello there. 

I have a problem that drives me nuts... 

Hopefully someone knows what's going on here in Delphi 4(UP3): 

I dropped a ChartFX98 chart on a form. 

I imported the financial extension typelibrary into Delphi. 

I put FINANCIALCHARTSEXTLib_TLB in the uses clause. 

I declared a global variable FinExt this way:    FinExt: FinancialCharts; 

I add the financial extension at the OnCreateForm event like this: 

  FinExt := CoFinancialCharts.Create; 

  ChartFX1.AddExtension(FinExt); 

Now I have a pointer (FinExt) to the financial chart extension. 

Then I load two Localization DLL's. One for Chartfx98 and the other for the 

Financial Extension. 

 ChartFX1.Language('D:\Test\Dutch1.dll'); 

 FinExt.Language('D:\Test\Dutch2.dll'); 

So far everything works okay. 

Now I need to resize the menubars to fit the longer local (dutch) translated 

words. 

in ChartFX98 it goes well like this: 

 ChartFX1.MenuBarObj.SizeToFit; 

BUT with Finext.ToolBarObj  there seems to be a lot missing. 

I expect to see properties, functions and procedures but I only see 7 

functions and nothing more. 

These are the functions I do see when I hit the period button (and the 

little menu rolls out): 

function   _AddRef 

function   _Release 

function   GetIDsOfNames 

function   GetTypeInfo 

function   GetTypeInfoCount 

function   Invoke 

function   QueryInterface 

That's it. This drives me crazy. I cannot find why I am getting only these 

functions and nothing more. 

I hope someone can tell me or point me at a direction what could be wrong 

here. 

I tried it also in VB5 but there I actually do get the complete list with 

properties, functions and procedures 

so I think it must be somewhere in Delphi. 

Thanks in advance.
