When you want to define methods in an interface, you are as follows:
[ID (1), Helpstring ("Method SearchCust")] HRESULT SEARCHCHCUST ([In] BSTR BSTRCUSTID, [OUT, RETVAL] _Recordset ** PTR);
Since the _recordset type is used, it must be
Importlib ("C: / Program Files / Common Files / System / ADO / Msado15.dll");
So the entire IDL file should be rewritten as the following way:
// FindCust.Idl: IDL Source for FindCust.dll
//
// this file will be processed by the Mid Tool To
// Produce the Type Library (FindCust.tlb) And Marshalling Code.
Import "OAIDL.IDL";
Import "OCIDL.IDL";
