Registering for COM Interop

I have an assembly i need to register for COM interop. This assembly has
other assembly dependencies that need not be visible to COM. Although, when
i turn on "Register for COM Interop" in the project setting for the target
assembly and compile, it gives me an error "COM Interop registration failed.
Could not find a type library for assembly <dependent assembly>"

Is there a way to not have the dependent assembly registered for COM
interop?

TIA

Are you using any Types from the dependent registry in the public
interface of the assembly you want to register? Try marking those
members (or whole classes) with [ComVisibile(false)]

Marc,

I tested your suggestion with one of the dependencies and it works
correctly. Thanks for the information.
