COM wrapper around a .NET assembly

Found the following interesting discussion in the Newsgroups:
COM wrapper around a .NET assembly
by:Graham Blandford
| Hi all,
Wonder if anyone can point me in the right direction.
Due to time-constraints, it looks lie I may have to abandon using VB.NET
development in favour of my more familiar VB6 environment. The issue I have
is, that I have to use a .NET assembly (DLL) to access data from a database.
I understand it is possible to create a wrapper using COM which would then
make it available to VB6. Although this isnt ideal, it might help me, in
this partiular case, get to where I need to go a lot quicker. I'm not
familiar with COM, but it may still be less of a learning curve than
..NET....
Any help would be happily received.
Thanks,
Graham

act as an ActiveX COM object that VB6 can use without a problem.
