I have written a standard DLL in Visual Studio 6 C++. I have also written a typelib to go with it so that it can be used directly in VB6 rather than via Declare.

Just a question, as I was unable to register the related upnp.dll provided by the intel open source upnp tools package (as provided here: http://opentools.homeip.net/dev-tools-for-upnp ) from the VB6 references dialog, it said something to the effect of "can't register .dll", but since it is written in (i think) C or C++ I figured there ...

In the system32 directory I saw an .OCX file with a corresponding .OCA file. I had thought .OCA files are used only by Visual Basic.
