Hello friends,

I created a dll in VB6 and added as a reference in VB.Net project. It works fine, no problem.

But i deployed the dll in my local machine as service in com manager and i want to consume as a service in my VB.Net project.

I do not know how to do that.

I want to consume the service of the dll without adding as a reference in my .Net project.

Thanks in advance.

Through googling, i found that we can create object in VB.net same way as VB6.

I deployed sample com in my local machine.

Then i called the com using the code

VB

addobj = CreateObject("SimpleCalculator.AddNumbers")

And i called the function in button click event as

VB

Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
       val1 = TextBox1.Text
       val2 = TextBox2.Text
       MsgBox(addobj.add(val1, val2))
   End Sub

Now it works fine.
