i want to use .net components in my vb6 application, should i used
regasm or tlbexp to use the .net dlls, moreover will these dlls run
without the .net runtime ?

I was to basically use the serialization scheme of .net, binary
formatter class is sealed and moreover i cannot export the
mscorlib.dll that contains the binaryformatter class. I cannot inherit
or implement the binaryformatter class as it is sealed, if i create a
class and use features of binaryformatter and then export it over a
non-.net-runtime environment will i be able to use the features of
that file (yes!! - how ?)

n e ways how to use the tlbexp, it exports as a tlb file, than how to
use it in my vb6 file.
