    Ever time you compile, a registry entry is created to tell the PC that there is a dll registered on the system, this unique key needs to be in all pc's using this dll or the PC won't realise it has the file.

    If that makes any sense, you can ...
    • Download Microsofts REGCLEAN program that patches buggered pars of the registry,
    • Rename the Dll when you try Compiling & the filename box appears - this should create another registry key.

    Do you know a link to download the REGCLEAN. I just have found articles but not the software.

    You running NT or 2000? NTFS permissions can be set on registry keys on those OSes. Would you have "enforcer" type net admins that would lock that down on you?

    I'm using Win2000 Josh, but I also think there is a problem into the registry, because I also have problem to install a proxy for a COM+ app, it says somethign about the registry and crash.

    And all other tasks work properly, without registry problems.

    But I cannot find where to download the REGCLEAN software.

    Looks like MS stopped doing it after NT, you might want to look at this page though :
