Hello,
Here is a nice puzzle.....
Does anyone know if it possible to interface with a 3rd party application, without having ocx or dll components?
The API are inside the .exe (as I was told by the supplier)? They also have a .tlb file.
I tried to register the .exe in Custom controls - did not work.
The supplier claims that it would work from a VB environment, using the following code (I am not a VB developer):
Dim ConnectionApp As Object
Set ConnectionApp = CreateObject("Connection.Application")
Anyone?
Thx in advance..

Hello,
I tried to regsvr32 APPNAME.exe but this did not work: I received the error:
"appname.exe was loaded, but the dllregserver entry point was not found. appname.exe does not seem to be a .dll or .ocx"
check http://www.mibuso.com/forum/viewtopic.p ... gsvr32+tlb to see a way to register a .NET automation.

I think you should contact your vendor to give you support. You can also register an EXE automation with regsvr32. TLB file is usually the entry point to automation. Even if you past that code to a VB application it won’t run correctly if automation isn’t installed.
