i'm using slx LAN 7.5.3

I don't want to use .net extensions and was wondering how to call a dll when click button on tab.
I've regasm the dll then on button click event added the code below but the object not recognised?
what have I forgotten to do? (the dll should show a .net form)
  Dim editKey
         ' set editKey = Application.CreateObject("DatelSLXCustDial.EditKey")
         set editKey = CreateObject("DatelSLXCustDial.EditKey")
        editKey.SetConnectionDetails dbserver, db, dbuser, dbpwd, dbschema
        editKey.DoEdit()

didn't want to use .net extensions as would need to rewrite the dll which ain't can't do at present.

thanks

the dll is com enabled by the way

Do you get an error on CreateObject or on one of the lines that follow?

To ask the obvious, you're sure you've registered the dll as a COM and the "DatelSLXCustDial.EditKey" is the correct clsid?

Does it work outside of the SLX environment as COM on this same machine? Maybe try creating a simple app or vbscript file to test?

Hi

created testharness and ran dll from there using code below and it worked outside of slx so object it recognised

private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            DatelSLXCustDial.EditKey EditKey = new DatelSLXCustDial.EditKey();
            EditKey.SetConnectionDetails(txtServer.Text, txtDatabase.Text, txtUser.Text, txtPassword.Text, txtSchema.Text);
            EditKey.SetAccountID(txtAccountID.Text);
            EditKey.DoEdit();
        }

only did regasm "c:\..\datelslxCustDial.dll" do i need to do anything else
if work in test harness it must be registered ok for that to find it -no?

still not working, given up and rewrote dll to work with .net extensions and that works

thanks
