How to register class in OS registry?

sektor · September 7th, 2009, 04:49 AM

I created class library in VB .NET and want to load it with Application.VBE.ActiveVBProject.References.AddFrom File, but VBA shows following error: "Run-time error 429: ActiveX component can't be created VBA".

I looked thru Internet and found out that class library should be registered with OS. So, how to programmatically register this library with VBA?

This is a VBA forum, I don't know how much .NET help you can get here.

No, this was of no help. :(
The thing is I need programmatic linking .NET library by using TLB file.

Why not use late bound references? Declare As Object and use CreateObject to instantiate the application you want.
