1. Identities

Library name: TCPIP 1.0 Type Library
Library code: TCPIP
Library CLSID: 741A8CC3-7EFC-11D1-BBB6-204C4F4F5020
ProgID: .DNS
Library file name: TCPIP.DLL

2. Scripting engines without types (VB Script, JavaScript, JScript, WSH, ASP)

You can create the object using CreateObject function:

Dim DNS
Set DNS = CreateObject(".DNS")
DNS.SomeMethod SomeParameters
DNS.SomeProperty = SomeValue

You can also use CreateObject method method of Server object (ASP) to put the DNS object to page scope or CreateObject method of WScript object in WSH.

You can also put the object to Application or Session scope using <object ...> tag in global.asa

<object runat="server" scope="application" id="DNS"
 progid=".DNS">
</object>

Please use ActivexObject object in JScript/JavaScript to create DNS object:

var DNS;
DNS = new ActiveXObject(".DNS");
DNS.SomeMethod(SomeParameters)
DNS.SomeProperty = SomeValue
...

3. VBA (VBA 5, VBA 6, Visual Studio, Word, Excel, MS Access, ...)

VBA 5/6: You can reference the library using menu Project -> References -> select 'TCPIP 1.0 Type Library' in the listbox (or Project -> References -> Browse -> select TCPIP.DLL file).
MSAccess, Word, Excel: Tools -> Macro -> Visual Basic Editor, then Tools -> References
Then you can write:

Dim DNS As New TCPIP.DNS
DNS.SomeMethod SomeParameters
DNS.SomeProperty = SomeValue
    ...

Dim DNS As TCPIP.DNS
...
Set DNS = New TCPIP.DNS
DNS.SomeMethod SomeParameters
DNS.SomeProperty = SomeValue
...

You can use CreateObject function also, of course:

Dim DNS As TCPIP.DNS
...
Set DNS = CreateObject(".DNS")
DNS.SomeMethod SomeParameters
DNS.SomeProperty = SomeValue
...

4. Visual Studio .NET (ASP.Net, VB.Net, C#, J#)

You can reference the library using menu Project -> Add reference -> COM tab -> select 'TCPIP 1.0 Type Library' in the listbox -> click Select. Then you can write (C#, J#):

 //create  a new DNS object
 TCPIP.DNS DNS = new TCPIP.DNSClass(); 
 DNS.set_String("Some text value"); 
 





 String SQL; 
 SQL = "Insert Into Table (BinaryColumn) values (0x" + DNS.get_HexString() + ")"; ...

or (VBA)

Dim DNS As New TCPIP.DNS 
DNS.SomeMethod(SomeParameters)
DNS.SomeProperty = SomeValue

5. T-SQL, MS SQL stored procedures and functions

DECLARE @DNS INT, @OLEResult INT 
EXECUTE @OLEResult = sp_OACreate '.DNS', @DNS OUT
IF @OLEResult <> 0 PRINT 'Error create component DNS'

--Set a property of DNS.
EXECUTE @OLEResult = sp_OASetProperty @DNS, 'PropertyName', @SomeSQLValue
IF @OLEResult <> 0 PRINT 'PropertyName set problem'

--Get a value of a property of DNS.
EXECUTE @OLEResult = sp_OAGetProperty @DNS, 'PropertyName', @SomeSQLValue OUTPUT
IF @OLEResult <> 0 PRINT 'PropertyName get problem'

--Call some method of DNS.
EXEC @OLEResult = sp_OAMethod @DNS, 'MethodName', 
 @ReturnValue OUTPUT, @parameter1, @parameter2

5. Other programming environments

Please see documentation of your programing environment, work with COM objects (OLE objects, ActiveX objects). DNS is a standard COM object, it can work with other environments, such are Delphi or PowerBuilder.
