I have a simple activex server that I wrote that works fine from the client when using:
dim remote as object set remote = CreateObject("MyRemoteProject.MyRemoteObject", "ServerName")
But when I try to use early binding like this:
Dim remote As New MyRemoteObject
and then make a call to it I get:
Run-time error '-2147221163 (80040155)':
Automation error Interface not registered
Any thoughts?
Thanks, RWK

Activex Server - Early Binding vs. Late Binding
RWK,
One of the Remote Server Files created when you build your Server is a TypeLib. You *might* be able to use Early binding if you register the Typelib on your local machine (RegTLib.Exe).
I copied the .tlb and the .vbr files and manually registered them using clireg32.exe to get it to work in the first place and when I try using early binding in the IDE it seems as though it will work since I can browse it with the VB object browser and autocompletion works. It just doesn't work when I go to run the app. The main reason I want to be able to do early binding is the convenience of using the object browser/autocompletion.
Thanks, RWK

I unregistered and then reregistered the component using dcom instead of remote automation and the early binding works fine.
Thanks for your response Phil. RWK
