Can a VB6 project use a .Net .dll

I have a VB6 project. My question is can I call a .NET .dll that has all the business rules of the project (from the VB6 application)?

Basically I have a VB6 project with a classic ASP project calling a vb6/ActiveX .dll. The requirement is to figure out the best way to upgrade the application. So, if I update the ActiveX .dll can the VB6 app call that new .NET .dll?

I guess the same question is viable for the classic ASP project as well...

Thanks!

Yes, but you need to make the .Net types Com Visible. Also see Matt's comment below regarding array indices and strings. The fact that it's possible doesn't make it a good idea though...
