setup project, registering dlls

[mtpollack]

Hi,

I have an application that depends, for successful
deployment, on a COM dll that needs to be registered on
the user's machine. How do I include te registration of
this dll in my setup project? I can't find anything in the
docs about this, oddly...

Thanks, malcolm

Malcolm,

You need to change the Register property of your com dll in the File System Editor. Here are the two help topics on MSDN:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/de...properties.asp
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/de...erproperty.asp

Hope this helps,
Elizabeth
