    Running app from remote machine

    I've written an application that uses 2 DLL files. The app works fine when launched from my machine, but I'd like to have it run from one of our remote machines.

    If anyone, who doesn't have the DLL files, tries to launch the app they get an error 429 "ActiveX component can't create object".

    Is there any way I can setup the app to use the DLL files from the remote machine… as opposed to having to have everyone copy and register the files locally?

    Thanks in advance,
    - Sam

    The location of the dll's HAVE to be registered in the registry on the local machine. If you have a mapped drive to the local machine this would be a way. But the installation of your app would still have to register the dll on the local machine from the remote machine and the remote machine would have to be available.

    Now mind you any app that used a dll of the ame name would run that dll also. So you can't have a registered dll on the local machine of the same name.
