Unregister tlb type library on Windows xp

I use "regtlib.exe -q MyTypeLib.tlb" to register Type Librarys. I read in some blog that typelib is the one that comes with vbAccelerator's High Resolution Multimedia Timer, namely vbalHRTA.tlb, but when i try to register the same .tlb file on my another machine it does not do so, if I try to go to the correct location in a command window I get the message that CMD does not support UNC paths. What this message suggest, does anyone has any idea about this.

You can refer a type library in the preferences window. Is the .tlb file itself registered? It could also be registered incorrectly. Try also use "regtlib.exe -?". Reference to Type Lib information object component (TLIBINF32.dll). Download the CCRP registration utility, which can register and unregister type library files (VB itself will register them, but provides no way to unregister them, and regsvr32.exe cannot register or unregister .tlb files).

I had the same problem. Ms documentation clearly states that you can also "unregister" a typelib with this tool, but there are no instructions for how to do so. A Type Library registration utility that allows you to register Type Libraries more reliably than using VB's Project->References dialog.

Re: Unregister tlb type library on Windows xp

Do you mean, you cannot even load and add the reference to that *.tlb in a fresh, clean VB-Sandard.exe project for example? When you are using a Unicode function, however, you need to ensure Visual Basic never makes the ANSI conversion. That means you can't use the As String construct in Unicode function declares. You can change that relative easy, if you have the Typelib-
Editor at hand, which comes with the "Curland-Book" - or change it within the *.odl or *.idl-file
