I have used vb6 to write a DLL.
The problem is that I need it to release from memory when it is finished
or
on error.
How can I do this?
Are you talking about an ActiveX (com) DLL? If so, it should "die" on its
own when the last reference is released... so, when you're done with it, set
the object variable you're using to access it, to Nothing. If you're worried
about a runtime error causing the DLL to "get stuck" in ram, make sure you
use generous doses of error trapping so common runtime errors won't crash
your app.
