Hey there.

The question come to code reuse in activex dll.

I have a simple function that I want to reuse in many MS Access Applications but I do not want to expose it to the end user. Making a .mde is not optional and Access 2k will not let you lock sections of code just the whole project also not an option.

The problem. I took the code which works fine in a VB 6 development enviroment as well as in a couple VB6 apps and ms access 97 & 2k apps and tried to put it into a activeX dll. Then I went to a new project and tried to reference it as you would other dll's but I get

"can't find the entry point"

The library is there and found. The function names are named properly.

What is going on and if I am on the wrong thought process is there anything on-line as a guild to doing this?

Thanks for any time and effort.
