Hi
I have a ActiveX DLL written in VB 6, the dll has two classes. I have to use
these classes in a VC 6.0 or VC +.NET 2003 unmanaged project.

In VC 6.0 I have no idea as how to use it..

In VC++ .NET 2003, I can add the reference to the VB dll, but i can't use
it. Please help me with the syntax.

Regards,
Ashutosh

VB6 produces COM Servers. To use these in VC++, you have to create a COM
Client. The #import directive can be quite useful that task.
