Using COM Objects in VB

[Azh]

Hello All

I've built a COM object using Visual C++. Now I'm trying to use this object I've built in Visual Basic. I've included the .dll that was built in references, but I'm having trouble trying to create the object.

Dim msg
set msg = CreateObject("Module.classname")

is that what i'm supposed to be doing?

Thanks

I am using COM objects built in C++ in VB as well. You have to have them referenced and registered.

My dll is called cb2Manager.dll

'this is how i declare it so VB can list the 
'properties and methods
Dim myGlCreator As CB2MANAGERLib.cbCreator

'Then i create the object like this.
'1 is a version number.
Set myGlCreator = CreateObject("cb2Manager.cbCreator.1")

Hey lain17

Thanks a ton! it worked. it turns out the dll did not get registered somehow.

Thanks again
