follow these steps:

2.add some classes to it

3. compile it and make a activex dll

4. close this project

(well done ....your dll is ready for use ....)

5.start a new standard exe project

6.from the references option browse and select the dll that you just created.
(this would register your dll and also included it into your project)

oh yea and the functions/subs/properties that you want to be "visible" to the application using the dll(TLB) have to be public.

You can created a Active Dll project and can add many class in it.
Then, compile the project. If you wanted to use dll. choose the menu Project -> Reference-> indicate file dll as you created it.
Good luck!

Read Karl Moore's COM-tutorial in the tutorials section on this site. I know it helped my out a lot on this subject.
