dll deployment issue

microsoft.public.dotnet.framework

I have created a VB Class Library in VS2005. This dll will be called
from a VB6 program. Everything works fine on my machine.

Now I need to send the clients the latest version of the VB6 program.
This means that I now need to deploy this dll on client's machines and
have it installed in the System32 directory. Some clients have
Framework 2.0, others don't. What is the best way (if there is one!) to
create a Setup and Deployment program to install and register the dll on
the clients machines? I have looked at both "Setup Project" and "Merge
Module Project". My main concern is that regsvr32 can't be used to
register the dll; regasm must be used and I can't expect my users to
know how to do that.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

TIA,

DaveS
