This code has to be in a COM-exposed library. You can NOT create a normal class library project and expect it to work in VBScript. It MUST be a COM-exposed library.

Next, the library has to be registered using REGASM, found under C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET folders. REGSVR32 WILL NOT WORK!

After that, in your VBScript coede, you have to create an instance of your class using CreateObject before you can call the methods you exposed in your class code in the library.

Like I already said, you have to create an instance of the class in your library in order to use it.

Dim objMyClass, result
Set objMyClass = WScript.CreateObject("MyCOMExposedLibrary.MyClass")
result = objMyClass.MyTestMethod(someParameter)
