Register a COM object using InstallShield

I am using InstallShield 2011. I have a COM object that needs registered during installation. I cant seem to find anywhere where it instructs you on how to do this. Does anyone have any ideas?

Thanks

Create a component and add your COM dll/ocx to it and right click it to mark it as key file if needed. Then right click the file and select "Extract COM". You should see a bunch of progress messages as it harvests the various registry entries. Build your installer and test it on a clean machine.
