Assertion error when registering a DLL
I am trying to register a dll developed in Visual C++ for use in a VB 6 app. The process gives me the following error: "Debug assertion failed" and specifies Viewhtml.cpp line 419 as the file where the assertion error fails. Is there an obvious reason why I'm gettin this error - maybe a required dll on my system (Windows NT 4 SP4). I infortunately do not have any knowledge of what is used to develop the dll in Visual C++! Hope somebody out there can help?

Hi
I don't think it is because of mfc library UR getting assertion failure
do U have the source code for UR dll or do U know what kind of dll it is?
I think that may be causing the registering function to fail.
Remember it is not necessary that UR dll have problems to get a assertion.
the method I have suggested is std method to access a dll even API's are excessed using this function
Hope this helps

The VB app I am trying to write is a dll itself. The dll I am trying to register is more like an interface between my app and an external product and has a *tlb. We operate according to strict standards and even though your suggestion is workable, it is not unfortunately against our standard. Do you know of any Mfc* library that I might be missing that could cause an assertion error?
