I've never done this before so bear with me.
I have a .tlb file that defines an interface. I need to go thru and define each of those functions. I also have to build a property tab with various controls (if the COM DLL was programmed with C++ it would use a CPropertyPage...I don't know what the equivalent is in VB however). I then need to compile it into a COM DLL with a unique GUID so I can register it with the system.

* What type of VB.NET project do I need to start? I figured out how to associate the .tlb file with the project but am unsure of what type of project to start.

* What VB.NET form is equivalent to the CPropertyPage in the MFC?

* Is there an "object browser" for a .tlb file so I can see what functions and properties are exposed?

Does any of this make sense?

Thanks in advance!!
