working with self-created dll's

[watermeloene]

Hey,

What's the best way to distribute my self-created dll's over the network?
A few programs I've created use the same dll's. I need to have these dll's on the client-computers and sometimes the dll will be updated with a newer version.
I'v created my dll's with VS 2005 and VB.NET. I'm testing on a Vista-computer.

Thanks

Wouldn't your Dll's be packaged along with your app?

Nope,

I've created a dll that gets data from a database and shows it in an Excel-form. This dll is used in many applications All the applications are located on a fileserver and they are executed from that location.

Then why wouldn't you put the DLLs in the same place as the applications and let them reference them from there? No need to install the DLL unless it's a com object I believe.

Now I'm confused. If it is already on a network file server, then why do you need to distribute over the network?
