possibly, however you should unregister and reregister, which you do from
the command prompt on the server with the command
regsvr32 /u <full name of dll> and then
regsvr32 <full name of dll>
replace <full name of dll> with the full name and path to the dll. The dll
does need to be conform to certain interfaces , which it may not do so test
this first.
