I created an activex dll and registered it on a WIN 2000 server. Does it need to be registered in the COM services to operate?
<asp>
Set objReference = Server.CreateObject("bardll_a.dll")
strMethodReturn = objReference.ShowNotes(aspNoteID, aspStyleID, aspURL, aspDbConnectionString)
</asp>

ends up with this returned:
<html page>
Server object, ASP 0177 (0x800401F3)
Invalid ProgID. For additional information specific to this message please visit the Microsoft Online Support site located at: http://www.microsoft.com/contentredirect.asp.

Sorry if this is a cross post, but it got no responses over in the ASP forum
