calling/making a c++ dll

[Martin Huseby Karlsen]

I made a dll in c++ to do some calculations, and i call it from vba ( for
excel XP, also tried it fro access and excel 2000)

Problem is that when i copy the dll to another PC and run the same vba code
i get "run time error 53, dll file not found", on the pc where the dll i
created everything works nice

I've tried to register the dll with regsvr32 and from the vba code, with
"regsvr32 myDll.dll" i get the error "the specified module could not be
found"

I used a "MFC DLL " project in visual studio .net to create the dll, in
basic i followed this example
http://civilu.ce.utexas.edu/stu/goodaljl/c++VBA.htm

Any ideas of what i should do to make the dll run nice on other pc's than
the one the dll i created on ?

DLLs (Dynamic Link Libraries) are not part of the _standard_
C++ language and thus are not discussed in this newsgroup.
For better assistance, research a newsgroup dedicated to your
platform. See the Welcome.txt and FAQs below for further info.
