Multifile Assembly with Compiled DLL?

I have created a C# DLL with Visual Studio 2003. I now need to include
functionality from a compiled VB.NET DLL, but instead of including the
file I want to "build it" into my DLL so I only have to deploy a
single file.

I understand that I cannot use the IDE to make multifile assemblies.

How can I proceed?

Thanks.

The command line compilers can combine 'modules' into a single
assembly. You first have to compile the code as a module on the command
line, then combine these modules as one assembly.

But what if the DLL is an already-compiled Release build and the
source is not available? What if it is an already-compiled Debug
release with an accompanying PDB?
