Create a DLL and use it

[Johan1974]

Hello,

Can you give me an example how to create a dll in visual basic .net and use it in a other application. I managed to create a dll in VB.net and use it within a different project of VB.net But i can not use it in a different application, if i try to do a reference to the created dll nothing seems to happen.

So a simple example how this should be done would be very nice

Thnx,

Johan

What other application? What language?

It uses WinWrap Basic Editor this is a VBA-compatible script. Normally i use vb6 and then register the script with regsvr to use it in this script.

But now when i use a vb.net dll i can not reference to this dll and when i try to use regsvr32 i get the message

Sample.dll is loaded but the entrypoint dllregisterserver is not found.
This file can not be registered.

Is there some kind of setting in vb.net i have to use to make the dll available to thirdparty applications ?
