Windows – Regsvr32 fails to find the dll in the current folder

See Windows Batch File (.bat) to get current date in MMDDYYYY format:

@echo off
For /f "tokens=2-4 delims=/ " %%a in ('date /t') do (set mydate=%%c-%%a-%%b)
For /f "tokens=1-2 delims=/:" %%a in ('time /t') do (set mytime=%%a%%b)
echo %mydate%_%mytime%

If you prefer the time in 24 hour/military format, you can replace the second FOR line with this:

For /f "tokens=1-2 delims=/:" %%a in ("%TIME%") do (set mytime=%%a%%b)

C:> .\date.bat
2008-10-14_0642

If you want the date independently of the region day/month order, you can use "WMIC os GET LocalDateTime" as a source, since it's in ISO order:

@echo off
for /F "usebackq tokens=1,2 delims==" %%i in (`wmic os get LocalDateTime /VALUE 2^>NUL`) do if '.%%i.'=='.LocalDateTime.' set ldt=%%j
set ldt=%ldt:~0,4%-%ldt:~4,2%-%ldt:~6,2% %ldt:~8,2%:%ldt:~10,2%:%ldt:~12,6%
echo Local date is [%ldt%]

C:>test.cmd
Local date is [2012-06-19 10:23:47.048]

I can only find three definitions for that error code:

# for hex 0x7e / decimal 126 :
SYSTEM_THREAD_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED                           bugcodes.h
NMERR_REMOTE_NOT_A_SERVER                                     netmon.h
SQL_126_severity_15                                           sql_err
# Invalid pseudocolumn '%.*ls'.
ERROR_MOD_NOT_FOUND                                           winerror.h

Are you sure the DLL is an ActiveX/COM library that needs to be registered with RegSvr32?
