possible. Please make sure that the file is accessible, and that is a valide
assembly or COm component"

What version of vb.net did you use to build "d:\path_of_the_dll"?
 
hi,

i have this problem in a visual basic 2005 version. I also tried this on a
pc where visual studio 2008 is installed, but the same error shows up.
regards, Georg

So the dll and the executable to reference the dll are all being built
with the same version of VB.Net? That seems very odd.

Have you tried putting both projects into one solution, then adding the
reference as a project, rather than navigating to the dll itself?
