If its a COM question you are probably better off asking
on the Python Windows mailing list.

It's available on gmane.org as gmane.comp.python.windows.

There is no generic solution that works with COM.
However, if you are accessing COM via pythonwin
(aka PyWin32) you will have access to the Pythonwin IDE
which includes a COM object browser which will,
I think, give you what you want.
