Convert VB6.dll file to .net dll

Question

I have a dll file written in VB6. I understand that I can add this DLL file as a link in the VS project, but I need to add this DLL file as an embedded resource for my VS solution. Then I would like to call this .dll file to call the function.

However, I cannot load the DLL file as an assembly because it was written in VB6. Assuming I can't just rewrite this code on .net, does anyone have a working solution to convert this DLL into a recognizable build file?

You will not need to convert it, you just need to refer to it as an unmanaged DLL. For more information on how to do this, see http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/magazine/cc301501.aspx .
