    ActiveX DLL

    I need to view the method exposed by the dll made using visual basic, i can use the method defined, but if i am using vc++ dumpbin utility to view the methods exposed, it is not showing that method, that is actually vb dll does not expose method.
    i want to use it in another third application, which needs the method to be exposed.
    any help shall be appreciated

    Re: ActiveX DLL

    A Visual Basic activeX dll does not expose its methods in the EXPORTS table, as it only exports DllRegister and the rest of the COM interface.

    To see the actual COM methods you need an OLE browser - there's one on the MSDN site called Ole2View. Or load a reference to the DLL in VB and press F2 to open up the object browser.

    HTH,
