Should I register the smart tag DLLs using their CLSIDs or ProgIDs?
The disabled/enabled state of DLLs registered using their ProgIDs is not preserved across application sessions, as users might expect. (Users can set the disabled/enabled state of smart tag recognizers from the recognizer list on the Smart Tags tab of the AutoCorrect Options dialog box, which is accessible from the Tools menu.) However, the disabled/enabled state of DLLs registered using their CLSIDs is preserved across application sessions. For this reason, it is recommended that smart tag recognizers and action handlers be registered using their CLSIDs rather than their ProgIDs. To learn how to register smart tag DLLs using their CLSIDs, see the Register the Simple Term DLL topic, under the Visual Basic® Tutorial: Creating a List Recognizer and Action topic, in the Microsoft Office XP Smart Tag SDK.
