Always useful to have the Register / Unregister option on the DLL contxt menu but I can't get this to work in XP. Anyone know how?

What problems are you having?

The following should work. Save the bit between the lines as dll.reg or something, and import it.

8<--------8<--------8<--------8<--------8<--------8<--------

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\dllfile\shell]

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\dllfile\shell\Register DLL]

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\dllfile\shell\Register DLL\command]
@="regsvr32 \"%1\""

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\dllfile\shell\Unregister DLL]

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\dllfile\shell\Unregister DLL\command]
@="regsvr32 /u \"%1\""

8<--------8<--------8<--------8<--------8<--------8<--------

If you don't want the messages from regsvr32, add the /s option

Doh, the .dll key under HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT wasn't pointing to dllfile for some reason.

Sorted now
