I´ve written the file install.reg with the following content

code:

---

REGEDIT4

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Patchou\MsgPlus2\RegisteredPlugins]
"VB Sample Plugin"="MPPluginVB.dll"

---

it´s just like the sample plugin (plus a change, the .dll extension, it wouldn´t work at all otherwise), by the way the original sample didn´t work either, it does appear in the plugin list in the options, but it´s just called by "Not active: " plus it´s filename (MPPluginVB), and non of the functions that I think should be there (from looking in the code) worked... Does anyone know what could be wrong?

btw, I compiled it as an activeX dll, there was no other dll to choose, perhaps I should have compiled it as something else?

you were right to compile it as an activeX dll, but the registry entry consists of this syntax (for vb plugins only!):

code:

---

projectname.classname

---

so if your project's name is "mylollorzplugin", and the class is "mppluginclass", then this should be the registry entry:

code:

---

mylollorzplugin.mppluginclass

---

You did read the documentation, didn't you henrik?

Yea I think I read it... not much information there, or perhaps it was just something else..

Thanks for the registry entry help Millenium_edition

VB plugin install info is in there somewhere, in a Readme or something.
Or maybe Developers.txt in the Plugins folder.
