In the project 'Properties/Application' page click 'Assembly Information' button and make sure 'Make assembly COM visible' is checked. Build the application. If all is well then Class1Library.Class1 should appear in the registry.

Note I deliberately made this a bit more complicated than ness. in that I've defined a ProgId that is different to the Class namespace.

>(Does the same type of thing as regsvr32 but specifically for .NET assemblies...)

Is there any way use regsvr32 for .net .dll's? Because I use Molebox, Molebox can move registries from development machine to customer machines as virtual except registries created with regasm.
