Problem
When attempting to register WordWriter.dll with regsvr32, the following error is thrown:
C:\Program Files\SoftArtisans\WordWriter\WordWriter.dll was loaded, but the DLLRegisterServer entry point was not found. DLLRegisterServer may not be exported, or a corrupt version of C:\Program Files\SoftArtisans\WordWriter\WordWriter.dll may be in memory. Consider using PView to detect and remove it.”
Solution
Regsvr32 can be used to register COM objects, but not .NET ones. Because WordWriter is a pure .NET assembly, it does not need to be registered. To be used in a .NET application, WordWriter.dll can be placed in either the Global Assembly Cache (GAC) or in the application’s bin directory.
WordWriter can be used from standard ASP by registering its COM-callable wrapper, WordWriterCOM.dll. The COM wrapper is registered with regsvr32. For more information on using WordWriter in ASP, see the WordWriter documentation onĀ Using WordWriter in ASP.
