Simple Distributed Question

OK I have some idea about the principals behind a distributed setup, but what I don't know is how I can write a statement similar to the following
Dim oObj as new cMyActiveXDLL
when the DLL is located on the server.  What do I have to do to make the statement above work correctly when it is located only on the server and not on the client's machine.

Thank You for your help I knew it had to be something simple.  I'm accepting your answer.  I'm not going to try it because I'm really not ready to try it, but I was wondering for a future project and what you say make sense.
Thanks, I wish I could say that it was smooth sailing from here on out, but there is more headache ahead with permissions, assuming that your server component will be running on an NT Server.  You'll need to use the Remote Ole Manager to set permissions on who can activate the server, or another program that does this too is called dcomcnfg.  

If you are looking for examples, there are projects under the VB samples\clientsvr directory somewhere.
