You did not provide anything to solve this problem, but even considering it makes no sense at all. If you already using C#, dealing with VB6 can be justified only by a masochist.

VB6 was obsolete even before it was introduced to the market. You hardly can tell a single reason to mess with it.

Solution 2

I have COM Component which is developed in VB6. I have to use this component in my Application.

I am upgrading an application for Document Management in which i used Read_Write_Doc.ocx component which Read doc and Write it into another doc.
For This I have to do this all.

Solution 3

Your error may not be a missing Entry Point in your OCX but may be a missing dependency.

Try to run the dependency walker ("depends.exe") on the client computer.

It should help you to add the missing dlls (may be from VB6 runtime).
