VB 6 InteropForms: The file [...] was not registerable as an ActiveX Component

I am working my way through the walk-through and I got as far as trying to load the control into the VB 6 toolbox.

I can load the DLL as a reference, but not as an ActiveX Component. When I try I get the message "InteropForms: The file [...] was not registerable as an ActiveX Component.".

I can create the control at runtime as a normal COM object.

EDIT:

If I try RegSvr32 I get this message:

[...] was loaded, but the DllRegisterServer entry point was not found. This file can not be registered.

EDIT 2:

If i register it with RegAsm, it appears in the component's list. However I get a error开发者_如何学编程 loading the DLL if I check it.

Not a full answer, but everything works if I run VB 6 and VS 2010 on the same machine. There must be something in the compile or post-compile step that I'm missing.

EDIT:

Ok, so what you need to do is run regAsm with the /codebase and /tlb options.

EDIT 2:

If you make any changes to the .NET dll, make sure you reregister it.

1. register your library first

like this If you want to add dll file in you vb6 project

Don't do

regasm labelwinform.dll /tlb:labelwinform.dll /codebase  

It will not register the dll.I face this problem so

Solution

regasm labelwinform.dll /tlb:labelwinform.tlb /codebase  

Axtivex component not registerable error due to dll file not registered properly in production(installing application on another computer or customer computer).So my i approach is advanced installer .it is my personal opinion.
