Re: Include existing ActiveX Dll without including it in the setup



Robin

Thank you for your reply.

I'm unsure if the dll is registered. How can I check it. I tried to
check it in VB6 References. It shows up there. I'm unsure because I have
referenced it before in VB.Net.

Another question is the interop.dll

Does this file not contain any parts of the DLL itself? How about
licensing if I distributing such an interop file?

Regards

Manfred

Manfred,


If the control is registered, then you can reference it and just ship the
interop library. The registry should know where it is so you don't need to
store a path to it.
