Dll register problem please help

[sans_tosh]

Hi All,

I have written a Atl COM Dll and have upgraded it to VC.net.
The project is getting compiled but while performing error i am getting an error as

"Registration failed ReturnCode 0x80070005 " as an error.
can anybody please tell me why is this happening?

thanks in advance

That error code is Access Denied. Since I don't have .NET and there are alot of difference causes for that error return, all I can suggest is to search on MSDN or google for that error code and try to get some hints on how to resolve it.

Hi Mike,

Thanks for the reply.
Is it that my loginId should be given any permission in Win 2000, so that registering takes place.

I think that is the problem... you should have some administrator privileges to register and unregister your COM object. I had many times the same problem, and usually that was the problem. I hope you can resolve it !!!
