Registration

To clarify: an ActiveX dll is not loaded like a normal code .dll. A normal code .dll is loaded by name and so it is important to place a normal dll somewhere in the PATH (or to update the PATH to include the dll's location).
None of this is required for an ActiveX control. You can put the ActiveX dll anywhere. What is required, is for the ActiveX control to be registered with the system. You do this from the command line using the Regsvr32 command. From the directory containing your ocx/dll enter the following at the command prompt:

Regsvr32 YOUR.OCX

ActiveX controls are typically installed as shared files in the Windows System folder. If working on a 64-bit system, typically "C:\Windows\SysWOW64" and if working on a 32-bit system, typically "C:\Windows\System32".
