Making an ActiveX self-registering
- Thread starter quovuz
- Start date
quovuz,
If I understand what you are asking, an ActiveX server (DLL or EXE) is automatically capable of registering itself (assuming it exports DllRegisterServer, which VB does for you automatically). Run an EXE and it will register itself, and run "regsvr32.exe mycomponent.dll" to register a DLL. You can call also run it with '/s' to prevent the message box from appearing.
