 ActiveX DLL

Quick question for some of you, I hope.

Just finished designed my 1st ActiveX DLL.  I use the make menu option and
include it in another app and works fine.

My question is about the References dialog box used to select the DLL.  I
would like to have the version number displayed with the title like the
other classes.  I can see me upgrading this DLL I've created at a later date
and would like to distinquish by versions.

Is there a way to do this?

BTW, modifying the project name works, but I can't use decimal.  I don't
really want to do it this way anyways.

Thx,

Jeff

I know how I do it with Active X Controls.  I am sure it is possible with
DLLs too.

WIth a control, I would open my project.  Click on the Object Browser
(yellow box with objects coming out) on the toolbar.  Then in the new window
that opened, I would choose from the top dropdown on the left my project.
Then in the list below I find the Control name.  There I right click on it
and choose properties.  In the window that opens is the place to type in
what I want to appear in the List of components when the user is trying to
find my control.  I am sure someplace in there you can do the same for a
DLL.

Jeff,

From the menubar select Project/Properties.  Enter text in the Description
field--this will be shown in the References dialog.
