I'm taking a class in VB, so I have numerous projects. I have a lot of useful functions and code, and I'd like for them to all be included in on piece of code that all my projects can use. The problem with DLLs is that when I build, the EXE needs the DLL to be in the same folder. I want a standalone EXE file. Is there any way I can have a DLL in a different folder than the EXE and still use it? Or is there some better solution to having useful code somewhere so when I update that code, it will affect all of my projects?

Sorry if that was hard to read. It was hard to put it into words.
