dotnet interop : strong naming DLLs

I created a .NET (DLL) called DBWrapperNET.DLL. It uses ADO 2.8 for the DB access.
This DBWrapperNET.DLL is to be used by multiple VB6 applications. I wanted to "strongly name" this DLL so that it can be shared by different VB6 applications (like we created other DLLs and register them).
I am not able to "strongly name" it. The compiler error message indicates that ADO 2.8 DLL that is used by DBWrapperNET.DLL is "un managed", hence DBWrapperNET.DLL cannot be "strongly named".

Any comments, work arounds ?

Try specifying your strong name key file in the "Wrapper Assembly Key File"
property of your project (Common Properties-General).
