| >Hello,
| >
| >I have two vb .net assemblies in a setup package. I am using VS .net
| >framework 1.14322 . The two .net assemblies are to be called by a COM
| >client. The assemblies have their project properties "register for COM
| >interop" checked. In the setup project I have both of the assemblies
| >register properties set to 'vsdracom'. When I run the setup.exe package
| >everything is installed, but the managed functions are not callable by the
| >COM client. If I run 'regasm.exe xxxx' where xxxx is the assemblyname for
| >each of the assemblies - everything works fine. I've read several times in
| >the newsgroup that vsdracom is the same as running regasm.exe - but it
| >obviously isn't.
| >
| >Any workarounds that I might try?
