    How do I use RegSvr32 to rgister a DLL with a fancy Title when seen in VB?

    eg Microsoft Common Controls - 6.0(sp3)

    If you take a look at the Controls lib (MSComctlLib) thru the Object Browser, you see that in the description field at the bottom(you'll have to be on the root of the lib for this) gives you the path of the lib - C:\WINNT\system32\MSCOMCTL.oca

    regsvr works on dll's and ocx's (reg the ocx, not the oca!)

    Errm

    Let me rephrase . . .

    I know how to register the actual DLL - but how does it get it's fancy title when seen in VB's reference browser?
