    Exclamation Seeking VB DLL Compiler

    Hi,

    I am looking for a tool which will allow me to compile a non-ActiveX DLL in Visual basic..i.e. one which has a VTABLE and is accesses with the LoadLibrary() and GetProcAddress() functions.

    Moreover, I would like my compiled DLL to also support the ActiveX interface created in VB.

    Am I asking for the moon, or does anyone know of such a thing?

    TIA,
    Duncan

    As far as I know, VB doesnot have the capability to compile standard dll's. Still, if someone knows a way, it would be an interesting thing.

    Pretty much so. I'm sure if there was a way, MS would have somehow mentioned it.

    Desaware have a product that takes a VB DLL and exports all the functions in the same way that C++ does naturally, I can't remember the name off hand, but it does exist - rather neat too from what I hear...

    I have books for sale: "MCSD in a Nutshell" and "VB Distributed Exam Cram" - PM me for details. Will also trade for a decent ATX Pentium 2 MB/CPU/RAM combo.
