Abstract: In this paper, given a module $W$ for a vertex operator algebra $V$ and a nonzero complex number $z$ we construct a canonical (weak) $VotimesV$-module ${calD}_{P(z)}(W)$ (a subspace of $W^{*}$ depending on $z$). We prove that for $V$-modules $W,W_1$ and $W_2$, a $P(z)$-intertwining map of type $W^{\prime }choose{W}_1{W}_2$ ([H3], [HL0-3]) exactly amounts to a $VotimesV$-homomorphism from $W_{1}otimes{W}_2$ into ${calD}_{P(z)}(W)$. Using Huang and Lepowsky's one-to-one linear correspondence between the space of intertwining operators and the space of $P(z)$-intertwining maps of the same type we obtain a canonical linear isomorphism from the space ${calV}_{W_1{W}_2}^{W^{\prime }}$ of intertwining operators of the indicated type to $Ho{m}_{VotimesV}(W_{1}otimes{W}_2,{calD}_{P(z)}(W))$. In the case that $W=V$, we obtain a decomposition of Peter-Weyl type for ${calD}_{P(z)}(V)$, which are what we call the regular representations of $V$.
