Hi,

I am creating an ActiveX DLL in VB6.

The DLL itself is a simple function - nothing wrong with it.

When I compile the DLL, it seems like the DLL is created, but I get an error message pop-up, saying:

"Error accessing the system registry"

When I try to reference my DLL within my EXE project, I get the error message:

"Error 429 - ActiveX component can't create object"


Please tell me what to do to solve this problem.

This is the first time I have tried to create an ActiveX DLL and I am being let down at the first step! Arrrrgh!

Many thanks.

error accessing the system registry sounds as though you do not have write access to the Registry. Make sure you have sufficient rights. You then get the 429 error, presumably because of the earlier message.

If it compiled ok, use regsvr32 to try and register the component.

the error "Error 429 - ActiveX component can't create object" is that the exe can't find ActiveX DLL. the couse can be deleting DLL or moving exe and Dll to difrent path
