Changing DLL to ActiveX DLL

[jtheis]

I've got an existing DLL that was written in Delphi 6 that I need to convert to an ActiveX DLL that can be called by VBScript. I have tried installing one of the components from the existing DLL and then trying to compile, but I don't get any confirmation back that the component was added. I know that it was not added because when I go to File -> New -> Other -> ActiveX -> ActiveX Control and the wizard comes up, my component is not listed.

I don't know what I should be looking for in the existing component that could be keeping it from getting compiled and showing up in the ActiveX wizard.

Any suggestions?

Another detail that may make this 'conversion' impossible...

Most everything done in the DLLs calls up a form/popup window. I don't believe it is possible to call a form in an ActiveX DLL, so I may be out of luck.
