DllRegisterServer entry point was not found in folder....

[analog]

Hi,
I get this error message when I tried to register a dll: "DllRegisterServer entry point was not found in folder....". I tried to reinstall the dll twice on two different computer and I still get the same message. Has anyone gotten this error before or know how to fix it?
Thanks

Not every DLL has this function in it. It CAN be supplied by a DLL but
there is no mandate saying that it MUST. Usually a DLL only needs this
function if it needs to make changes to the registry for proper
operation such as registering OLE or COM objects, so the system can
locate the DLL when a specific COM object is requested by someone. If
your DLL is a simple function library there really isn't much it could
register.
