    Visual basic .net standard question: Please let me know

    Can you create a com add in with vb .net standard the
    same way you could with vb 6.0?

    No, you can create a com ActiveX dll and in most cases an ActiveX control or exe from vb6 & add this into vb.Net, but you can't create them from .net.

    Well not true. You can use somethiong called com interop to create a com compliant component. But you should really only do so if you plan on using com+ services with the dll and have a major need for certain com+ features as there is some extra resource overhead.

    Yes it can be done, but its a bit "messy" and it comes with some overhead.
