This is a good article.
Basically VB6 does not know about .NET and knows about COM technology. .NET as able to create / use COM technology so you are basically creating a layer of code which allows COM calling (Vb6) to call a component which was written in .NET but allows access via to/from COM.
This layer is what a wrapper is - it wraps the .NET functionality in a COM interface allowing it to be called from any application that supports COM. Of course to use this functionality the machine still requires .NET framework to be installed on it.
