Re: Installing a BHO

Tech Tip: Click here to run a free scan for Windows Errors and optimize PC performance

If it's a Guid going to the registry it's not clear to me why you need code
at all. VS setups have a registry view where you can just add it. I don't
know what other data needs to go in the registry for a BHO as well as the
guid, but if you need to specify where your file is, it's most likely at
[TARGETDIR]your.file.

Actually, I used your tutorial before I wrote to this USENET. Thanks
for the tutorial, but I need the run the ComRegisterFunction because
that is where I add my GUID to the Registry such that my program is
registered as a BHO. Any Advice on how to get that done?

I have a BHO that needs to be registered. In VS2005 all I do is run
Regasm but for the install I am told I cannot use that method.

Currently I have my .dll set to register: vsdpaDefault and my .tlb
register: vsdrfCOM

However, this setup does not call my BHO [ComRegisterFunction] which is
needed. Can someone please explain to me how I can emulate the
behavior of Regasm Completely.

Thanks in Advance

Brian
