How do you go about using a DLL on the web? All this time I have been using it for my IIS application..but now I would like to move it to the web. Of course I am getting an error saying that server.createobject didn't work. What do I have to do to make it work? I've uploaded the dlls, but I'm sure there is more to it.

Thanks. - Karen
 
If they are ActiveX dll's (also known as COM dll's), you must copy the DLL to your web server and then open a command prompt.

Once you get the command prompt, you need to register the DLL

From the command prompt type:
regsvr32 NameofDLL.DLL
This will add the correct COM entries to the registry and make the DLL accessible from your application.
