Without wishing to get too technical, only .COM objects need to be registered.

.NET objects do not need registering, and attempting to register a .NET object will typically fail with this type of error message:

"C:\Program Files\SoftArtisans\WordWriter\WordWriter.dll
was loaded, but the DLLRegisterServer entry point was not
found. DLLRegisterServer may not be exported, or a corrupt
version of C:\Program Files\WordWriter\WordWriter.dll may
be in memory. Consider using PView to detect and remove it."

To register a driver file:
Start -> Run -> regsvr32 filename.dll
