help needed on how to use COM in vb.net

Question

Hi.. this is the first time i am trying to use a COM in vb.net i have create a COM using VC++ (using the ATL COM AppWizard). i have include the class that i wanted to create an instance from vb.net. The COM was successfully registered into the registry. I have also add a reference to that COM object in my vb.net project and it show appears in the References section of my solution explorer. However when i try to use the Object browser to view the contents of it, there was NOTHING!!!!.. I could not use the 'Imports ' statement to import that library. What is the problem??? is there anything i need to declare or add when i am creating COM? Would appreciate any help .... Thks in advance.. iceman
