Active X Control within DLL?

Right now I have an Access application that uses OWC Spreadsheet components (inserting this component directly into Access forms) and referencing MSOWC.dll. However, some of these calls are not compatible with Office 2003 so I would like to create a wrapper component within one of our DLLs that we have (right now the DLL just has some common code components). Is it possible to create a component within our DLL that can be pasted into an Access form as an Active X Control? This way we could call OUR spreadsheet component and translate it in one place behind the scenes and not have to constantly change the code in the user interface.

I'm wondering if it's possible to create a "component" within a DLL.
Any advice or guidance would be greatly appreciated!
