How to use and call a function in a .tlb file?

[korntex5]

Hi i want translate two lines VB in C# code to use my .tlb

VB code:

Set MesMacroAuto = CreateObject("Packbuilder.ApiPack")
MesMacroAuto.Show

any idea?

Set a COM reference in your project to the Packbuilder object.

Right-click on References in your solution pane, click "Add", and go to the COM tab.

This will do a early-binding. If you want to do a late-binding, you'll need to do several things:

1) Use tlbimp.exe to create a COM-Callable Wrapper from your .tlb file.

2) Create a co-class using the ComImport attribute, and put it in it's own assembly.

3) You can then use the System.Activator to load it dynamically at runtime.

thanks it's work. I work on delphi 2005 with C# IDE and i had seen that if you add the .tlb to your project it's work too but your .tlb is not refenced in frame work.
