How do I use CreateObject?

[LearningAsIGo]

I've been trying to figure out how to declare a CreateObject, but i don't know what to use for the statement or how to find it. Using what i found for Excel

Set AppExcel = CreateObject("Excel.Application")

I tried to use the same thing to create a Windows Media Player object with ("WMPlayer.Application"), but it was different

Set objPlayer = CreateObject("WMPlayer.OCX")

How do I know what to use in the CreataObject? is there a place i can check for the object refrence?
Thank you

Have you tried

Sub Main
    dim objPlayer as Object
    
    Set objPlayer = CreateObject("WMPlayer.OCX" )

objPlayer.url="c:\musicfiles\music.mp3"


End Sub
