Yes.

Assuming that the Registry settings are accurate, then the only reason for
the DLL to not work is if the message table in the DLL's resources is not
set up properly during compile-time.  Since you did not show the contents of
the .rc or .h files, I cannot comment on whether they were generated
properly by mc.exe.  I can tell you, though, that mc.exe is not required in
the first place, despite what Microsoft's documentation tries to suggest.  I
have services of my own that I wrote to use message tables using
hand-written .rc files, and they work just fine in the Event Viewer.
