You can install your component in multiple COM+ applications if you give each new installation a new GUID. If you do this, you should also create new ProgIDs for each new installation of the class. You should write the registration code as if the DLL that implements your class is different for each CLSID & ProgID you are assigning it. "Tampering" with the first registration will probably only cause you trouble.

Hi All,

Does anybody knows how to install the same COM object in several COM+
applications.

Formally in can not be done but I saw that Microsoft uses installs the sam
IISWAM object in several applications. Each object has a different name and
GUID but all point to the same dll file. I'ved tried to tamper with the
configuration information to get 2 such entries for my component but the
result was that one of the registrtions does not work
