Answer 1

This is what has to occur.

You have to copy your DLL that you want to Register to: c:\windows\SysWOW64\

Then in the Run dialog, type this in: C:\Windows\SysWOW64\regsvr32.exe c:\windows\system32\YourDLL.dll

and you will get the message:

DllRegisterServer in c:\windows\system32\YourDLL.dll succeeded.
