    dll

    I have created a classlibrary project which has a class in it with a procedure. This then gets buit using build solution. Then using a separate solution I would like to use the procedure in the dll that I built earlier. The problem is that When adding the reference I have to browse to the dll in the bin folder. Why isn't the class library (component) name present in the box (.net or com or project tab)?
    Thanks

    Because it isn't a project in your current solution, it isn't a com and it isn't a .NET assembly either

    Right. I _think_ you would have to install into the GAC for it to show up in the .NET tab of the Add Reference dialog - haven't done it myself but some stuff I've downloaded shows up there.

    And I _believe_ it has to be part of your current solution for it to show up on the Projects tab. I see those when I have a multi-project solution.

    NSITH,

    Doesn't show up if you put it in the GAC, but it does under project tab if it is in your solution .

    No big deal to browse to it anyway, but just remember that if you keep it in the bin folder and rebuild, you need to refresh the reference in your project to get the latest changes.
