Creating COM Addins in VB6 for microsoft word application

[engrfurqan]

Hi,

I want to create COM addins on Vb6 for Microsoft word application. Can anybody tell how can I do that or post some link where I can find how it should be done.

Actuallay I have some functions and I want to make them centralized so that word application can call them.

Regards,
Furqan

What do you mean by a COM addin?
Do you mean you want to create a word document from inside vb6? or do you want to call a VB6 application from a Word Document?

COM addins are dll's whose functions can be called from office applications

For a COM add-in you want to start by googling VB6 along with ActiveX EXE and/or ActiveX DLL. In fact ...

However ...

You can do this by adding your functions' module to the Normal template ...

How to build an Office 2000 COM add-in in Visual Basic might be useful as a start.
