How abut AX-EXE?

Seems that the name given for this must match several places.
But I do not know the rules.
I changed the name slightly within the IDE and compiled to the same old
..exe
name.
This killed it I think.
I changed the names within the IDE and compiled again and this time the
calling app had no problems even though before there were no Resources
errors.
Where is this convention defined?
When I am calling the AX-EXE what name am I calling? The .EXE
name.classname name (not!) or the Project Name.classname.
Must be project name.classname 'cause that works.

Need to study the object browser more. Probably would have seen that
there.
Where is this object browser writen up so a newbie can understand it? Any
books or whitepapers?


I didn't know you were talking about library or project names - I
interpreted "AX-DLL" as short-hand for "ActiveX DLL".

Your original problem had to do with not maintaining binary compatibility.
The "names" themselves have little to do with it. They are just symbols to
make programming easier. COM uses GUIDS.

You need to gain a spattering of COM knowledge. Tons of books out there,
most at cheap prices since VB (and to some extent COM) have deprecated by
MS.
