I might be wrong, but as long as the dll is registered (regsvr32), you should be able to load classes from it using the CreateObject("Class Identifier") method

is the Class Identifier is the name of the class module? Or it is the actual procedure/function name?

for example, the name of the reference is COM_MI and it has a class module named clsCOM_MI that has a procedure named ShowForm.. what would CreateObject syntax be?

sternr Over a year ago

something like this: dim obj obj = CreateObject("COM_MI.clsCOM_MI") Call obj.ShowForm

This "class identifier" is called a ProgID. They are often made of two parts, Program and Component. "Program" includes libraries (DLLs, OCXs) as well as EXEs. msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms678477(VS.85).aspx
