you can create a batch file in your program folder, and just run it like any other program:

VB6Code
Code:
Private Declare Function RegisterTestDLL Lib "Test.Dll" _
Alias "DllRegisterServer" () As Long

Dim regTest as Long
regTest = RegisterTestDll()as long as your dll file is in the same folder as your vb6 program, just replace "Test.Dll" with the name of your dll. Otherwise, you can use ChDrive and ChDir to get to the directory. =]
