Alternative Managed API:

The Visual Studio SDK now has an OLE InterOp dll (freely available) that wraps all the structured storage functionality. The System.IO.Package in the NET 3.0 also wraps it in internal methods - but you can access them through the packaging api's.

See StgOpenStorageEx for an example of using the System.IO.Packaging classes to access OLE structured storage.
