Hi all,
Does a Dll a requires an Entry point ?. Or We can Build dll without EntryPoint

Thanks in Advance
Dana

Yes, its a requirement so Windows knows where to enter the code to. Usually the Entry Point is the function name or a Sub Main.

You are using the ActiveX Dll project template?

Yes I am using Activex Dll Project template only

Sorry, still had my .NET brain on. No entry point is needed.

Make your funciton(s) that you want to use "Public", compile, and register. Just add a reference to the dll as its an activex dll vs a standard C++ dll.
