ex {System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException} System.Exception
COM object with CLSID {846298BC-047E-48D2-86CF-CDACAB0C9C24} is either not
valid or not registered.

Ok Im having a strange problem with this COM Dll. I have it working fine on
another computer but I am building a new DEV machine and transfering my
projects over and I get this error when trying to run one of my projects.

Here is what I know and have done.
- my Old machine has VStudio 2000 and VStudio 2003 (Frameworks 1.0 and 1.1)
- my new machine only has VStudio 2003 (Framework 1.1)
- Its a simple API DLL for a geoencoding map software we bought.
- I have installed/uninstalled the software like 20 times
- I have registered/unregistered the dll 20 times
- I have verified in the registry that it is corectly registered
- I have verified the permissions on the registry keys as well, they seam
correct.

I am at a LOSS.. any insight or ideas would be appreciated.

Oh I forgot..

I can browse the darn object in the object browser of my project, I see al
the classes & interfaces etc..
but in runtime when i do the dim Var = New dll.class it throws the unknown
class ID from previous post
