asp_components thread: Visual Studio question

Hi,
I know this is only barely on topic, but please help me.
I've written an active x dll and a standard exe to run it. I grouped
the two projects and all worked well.
Then I "made" my exe and dll. They compiled fine, I registered the dll
and they run OK.
Now when I try to run the project group from visual studio, nothing
happens. Even if I put a lines of garbage in the code, nothing happens.
No errors - I just have to click Stop.
Is there some setting I need to change to get it to work again?
Thanks very much.
Walter

I am assuming you are using VB currect?
I have never grouped projects together and ran them the way you
describe so
I cannot tell you what is wrong in your situation but I would suggest
an
alternative setting which works very well for me: load the dll and exe
projects into separate vb instances and run each one separately. Once
you
run the DLL you will be able to create objects exposed by that dll
using
your exe. This should always work.
hope this helps..
Greg

Greg,
Right click on your exe project in the Project Explorer and click 'Set as
Startup'.

On thing that might need checked is to set the EXE as the "startup"
project.
It could be that the DLL is set as the startup project and that it is
in
effect setting and waiting for its components to be created.

That's the fella. Thank you everyone - what a relief. I've spent weeks
going back and trying stuff!
