Thanks Bob.

That dll is provided by a 3rd party company. We don't know how it's 
implemented. But I guess something isn't quite right with the DLL. We'll try to 
talk to the dll provider to understand the detail.

The dll can be registered correctly by using regsvr32.exe. So after using 
regsvr32.exe, is there a way that we could manually collect the registry info 
for the dll and then use them in the installer?

Thanks.

As I mentioned, that's not a fatal error. There's some other error that 
might be helpful in diagnosing your root problem.

Use Class, Interface, ProgId, Extension, Verb, TypeLib.
