Sorry Steven, I meant to investigate this before but I forgot.

explicit_handle is an ACF attribute and not something that should 
normally be put in an IDL file. Furthermore, it is not necessary, as 
stated by MSDN:
"If the *[explicit_handle]* attribute is not used, the application can 
still specify that an operation have an explicit handle (binding or 
serialization) directing the call."
I think there is an MIDL command-line option to allow ACF attributes in 
IDL files though.
