I have created a ActiveX COM component (in VB5) which acts as a wrapper

around a non-ActiveX dll. My component (which appears to be correctly

registered on the server) works perfectly within a compiled VB project but

not when called from within an ASP page. I have even taked the ASP script

and (with very slight amendments) ran it as a Windows Scripting Host

script which also worked perfectly.



Is there anything extra I need to do in order to get a COM component

working successfully within ASP?



Thanks,

Might be a stupid question, but did you register the component on the 

server as well? Are the webserver and the "compiler" two different machines??

Yes the component is registered on the server ok. The WSH script that I

tested it with was executed on the server itself, as well as the VB

compiled project, so I know that the component works it just doesn't work

within an ASP page.
