I have some dll files that should be assembled and registered into a msi file. I want to read the relative information from the dll file and write these items into msi file directly. But how can I read these registry information from dll file? What information should I write into msi registry table? Is there any way to do that?

A lot of commercial setup authoring tools can extract the DLL registration information. For example, you can try Advanced Installer.
Another approach is to register your DLLs manually with the appropriate command line tool. Using an installation repackager, you can capture this process into an MSI. This way you can catch all the registry entries created by the registration process.
