What do you mean "registered"? Why do you need register DLL, now that you
develop .NET DLL and EXE? Do you make a .NET class library (DLL) and then
export it as a COM DLL, and then use it in your .NET EXE as COM component
(so complicated assumption, I know)?

If you develop your dll abd exe in .NET, using VB.NET, simple copy the DLL
and EXE to a .NET framework installed machine, in the same folder, off you
go. Nothing to "register".
