My new job requires work with Classic ASP which means registering DLLs.  Glad I remembered this little trick:

1. Open the Send To folder in Windows Explorer (usually C:\Documents and Settings\[yourName]\SendTo on an XP box)
2. Create a shortcut and point it to C:\[windows]\system32\regsvr32.exe
3. Give it a title like "DLL Register"
4. Change the icon to something that makes sense to you

Now, you can navigate to any registerable DLL, right click on it, Send To, Register DLL and it will do that for you.

You can also create another shortcut to the same DLL in your Send To folder, call it DLL Unregister, edit the properties of the shortcut and include the /u switch and you can now take a DLL and "send to" DLL Unregister.

Happy shortcuts.
