Regsvr32 without using Start->Run

I recently distributed an application on Windows NT
that referenced scrrun.dll

When I installed the application I had to go
to the Start->Run and type
"regsvr32 scrrun.dll"

I have to distribute another application using
scrrun.dll
Is there any way I can prevent the user from
having to go to start->run and registering the server ?

I'm not sure cause I don't have win 2000 but try going to my computer, c:\, winnt
and look in that folder

I think I can use the shell function as in:

shell "regsvr32.exe scrrun.dll"

but i have 2 more questions:

In what folders does the scrrun.dll file go to ?
eg, c:\Windows\system

and what are the entries to the registry ?

and how do i uninstall the .dll if i wanted to ?

Code:

DllUnregisterServer
To Register/Unregister a DLL/OCX

Option Explicit
Private Declare Function DllRegisterServer() lib "MyDll.Dll" as long
Private Declare Function DllUnregisterServer Lib "MyDll.Dll" () As Long
Const ERROR_SUCCESS = &H0

If DllRegisterServer = ERROR_SUCCESS Then
    MsgBox "Registration Successful"
Else
    MsgBox "Registration Unsuccessful"
End If

If DllUnregisterServer = ERROR_SUCCESS Then
    MsgBox "UnRegistration Successful"
Else
    MsgBox "UnRegistration Unsuccessful"
End If

Thanks for your help Matthew

Matthew,

I Thought that when you distribute your application, VB register all dll in your project ? Isnt? Do i have to check in my project evry dll? or trap the error for the unregisterd dll and register it in the fly?

Regards

Usually, if you use a Setup program, it will register everything...not sure about every Setup program though. I don't think VB alone will do it.
