Yeh, but I want to install it from the RB app. Running regsvr32 with the DLL's path as parameter via a Shell object in my app works fine (and is a programmatic way of doing the manual method you describe).

Thanks,

Put your dll where you want it to reside, then goto start, then run.

Type regsvr32 and hit the space bar. Then drag the dll into the run window right after the space, and the full path to the dll will be inserted, hit OK, should register.

(Excuse my ignorance in these matters, but Windows in not my primary platform)

I have a DLL containing an OLE Object I wish to use from an RB app on Windows. It would appear that the DLL has to be registered in the Registry before the app can access it. Is there some way, other than by using an installer or building the required Registry entries from within the app, that I can do this? Or, alternatively, some way of instantiating the object from the DLL without fooling with the Registry? Or perhaps some sample code to show how to do it?

 Thanks,
