Hi All


Normally when I want a component dll to be visible, I copy the .dll to the
..Net framework folder, and the component becomes visible in the Visual
Studio 'Add reference' / 'Add Item' lists.


Isn't it possible to add another folder to this search path, so dll's
contained in e.g. c:\DotNetComponents will be visible in Visual Studio
without having to browse for them?


Thanks in advance

Hi Allan,

There is a registry folder under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE or
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\VisualStudio\7.1\AssemblyFolders that
lists all folders (7.1 - vs.net 2003, 7.0-vs.net 2002).
You might add your own folder there.

HTH,
 
Thanks a lot


That worked just great.

Allthough my reg key was

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\.NETFramework\AssemblyFolders]
