    We have the following test VB.NET class file

    Public Class create_cls
        Public Function multiple(ByVal x As Int16, ByVal y As Int16) As
    Int16
            multiple = x * y
        End Function

    End Class

    That was compiled to a DLL. In trying to call the control from an ASP
    page we get an invalid progid or classid error message

    <%
    set otest = Server.CreateObject("createtest.create_cls")
    n = otest.multiple(4,5)
    response.write n
    %>

    I have read some other messages that indicate that we have to sign the
    dll and run the gacutil against the DLL and register the control using
    regasm.

    The question that I have, is it possible to call the VB.NET DLL
    directly without goinging through all of the steps to change the DLL?

    I am looking for a method that I can create the object from within ASP
    using something like createobject or some other means.

    I am just trying to avoid altering the DLL if possible.

    Thank you for any help

    Scott
