I'm trying to deploy a vb.net application using visual studio. I'm a little lost, does anybody know how to register a .dll via regsvr32 through the installer?
 
Assuming that your talking about a COM object. Add the file into the Application folder, and then set the files Register property to vsdrpCOM.

I haven't done this myself, just looked it up so hope its correct and helps you.
 
Well, I know how to go to "add" and merge modules. I got 3rd party .dll's that need to be installed and registered with the application in order to work.
 
Have you tried groups.google.com, I just found this by searching for "regsvr32 .net"

A .NET assembly can not be registered by regsvr32 directly, since it is not a COM dll. You have to generate a COM wrapper (which is generated by regasm.exe automatically) for it via tlbexp.exe utility, and register the wrapper dll with regsvr32.

Sorry but beyong my experience level
