IDispatch is actually a COM interface that is used for late binding. All COM components that support late binding should derive from Idispatch.

Typically, COM Components are versioned. For example, the latest ProgId of the component will ususally be accessed using the generic name, Adobe.svgctl. Version specific ProgIDs would have the version numbers Adobe.svgctl.1, Adobe.svgctl.2, Adobe.svgctl.3 etc. The idea is that you should usually run the generic ProgId to always be running the latest version of the component without recompiling. Only if you are having a problem should you run a version specific ProgId.

Maybe in a small way this will help you with your problem.
