COMClass example

[Anonymous]

I am trying to write a .NET dll that I can call from my AutoCAD 2007 VBA
code.
I understand I need a special class to expose the .NET dll to COM. This
class is apparently a COMClass.
I have been unable to find "good" examples of this.
Is this a class named "COMClass"?

I also read that there are some other issues to deal with like exposing
properties, methods and events to COM.

Does anyone have an example they would share?

Ok, let me re-phrase that.

What should I have read before I asked such a lame question?

Dan,
That article is
Calling COM Components from .NET Clients
which is the opposite of what I want to do. I'm trying to call a .NET
component from a COM client.

Most of the information I used to learn COM interop was through the Visual Studio local help documentation.

This should help though: http://www.codeproject.com/vb/net/MusaExposingCOM.asp
