I am having trouble accessing a ActiveX Dll in a standard exe.
I have complied the DLL and registered it, but every time I run it I get a "Specified Function not found (Error 453).
It is saying that it could not find the entry point of the function.
I am calling the DLL like a standard function
Here is the code that i am using to call it
"Private Declare Function addnum Lib "addme.dll" (ByVal FirstNumber As Double, ByVal SecondNumber As Double) As Double"

I do not know if I am setting the dll up wrong or if I am accessing it wrong.
Thanks for you help

hi there...

if your dll is an standard vb dll you should include it in your project and then you can directly user the objects that are in there.. go to references in your project and add it.

Instead, set a reference to the DLL in the projects references.
In the DLL, create an exposed class. This class will be the entry point, and will be the means of refering to the library. If the class’ name is “clsClassy,” and it has a method (Sub or Function) or a property called “AddNum,” you would refer to that as clsClassy.AddNum.

No Declare would be used.
