Registering a user function library in Crystal

Hello,
I have a dll file (created in VB 6) called CRUFLPM.dll with a simple
function in it that takes a string, manipulates it and returns a converted
string. I then registered it using "regsvr32 <path>/CRUFLPM.dll" and it
registed ok. However it does not appear in the additional functions list in
the Crystal formula editor. I am using the built in Crystal that comes with
Visual Basic .net.

Anyone know why I cant see the file?

Cheers
Paul

Hello, does anyone have either a User Function Library (or the source for one) to create a CRC32 checksum for a given string? I want to use the function in a crystal formula thus: formula = CRC32("123456789") This would then display on the report the CRC32 checksum for "123456789".
