ActiveX DLL:
An in-process server is an object that runs within the same process space as the client application that is calling it. If you want to use MTS, you have to use this one, since ActiveX EXE object can not. If you are going to use ActiveX DLL, make sure to select it as "Apartment Threaded"

ActiveX EXE:
An out-of-process server is an object that runs in its own process space. If it crashes for some reason, it doesn't take the client application down with it.

Hope this helps,
