Want to built machine independent DLL

Question

Hi, I created a bunch of forms and made a dll of that using (COM Interop option is selected) VB.NET. Now i accessing each of that form by createobject(objectfrmname) of another project in VB.NET by adding reference to created dll. Now, IF i copied that DLL to another machine there was problem for creating object of form by late binding (by createobject method).For that i have to built the dll based project on that machine also.So what the solution to built a machine independent DLL.

You cant just copy it on when you select the COM interop in the build options it registers all of the subs and functions in your DLL. The DLL has to be installed on the client machine. You can hack it by deploying a program called regasm and running it with an argument of the DLL something like 'regasm "c:\mydll.dll" ' will do it. Cheers, Si
