What is a DLL?

A DLL (Dynamic Link Library) is a set of functions that can be loaded and executed dynamically by Windows applications.

Quite often, a variety of applications require the same set of DLLs to perform particular operations, such as opening a window or saving a file. By having these DLLs stored separately and making them available to every application through a static or dynamic link, it helps in reducing storage space.

The DLL Manager

The DLL manager provided with your Windows Hosting package can be used for registering ActiveX DLLs, which may then be invoked in ASP scripts. The DLL to be registered must be uploaded to the \dlls\uploaded directory. It may not be used for registering dotNET based dlls, since dotNET dlls do not require registration to work.
