I'm getting this error when I do: regsvr32 ADXDHTMLControl.dll
LoadLibrary ("ADXDHTMLControl.dll") failed - The specified module could not be found

ADXDHTMLControl.dll is my dll built using ATL with WebBrowser Control on Visual Studio 6.0.

In a different thread: "regsvr32 return 0x80040154 on XP", I was told to register ATL.dll.
I tried it and it did not work either.
On some machines running 2K or XP, I can register my dll without any problem.
In other machines running 2K or XP, it does not work. I get the above error message.

What am I missing?
Please help me get out of this DLL misery.

Check the DLL with Dependency Walker (depends.exe,
http://www.dependencywalker.com/) on the machine where registration
fails. Most likely, your DLL depends on some libraries not present on
the machine - Depends will tell you which.

I tried it.
It indeed said that the following DLLs are missing:
MFC42D.dll
MFC042D.dll
MSSVCRTD.dll

These are debug dlls. Now I need to figure out how come in release mode building the DLL on Visual Studio 6.0 is picking up these dlls.

Got it!
Turn-off/Disable bunch of debug settings in release mode.
The DLL is now happy.

Hi,
Would you be able to explain exactly what you mean by "Disable bunch of debug settings in release mode" - what settings need to be disabled?
Thanks.
