Obviously this can be done - just not sure how...

There are two developers who are developing vb.net applications. We have
Visual Studio 2005.

One developer has developed a ton of classes that I would like to utilize in
my projects as well.

What is the best way we can go about doing this so that anytime either of us
makes changes to any of these classes (most likely it will be jsut the one
developer), the changes will be reflected in any project that is referencing
these classes??

Would it be through the use of a class library or is there another better
way to do it?

Are there any good examples of exactly what configurations needs to be done
..in order to have multiple developers share classes out on the web?

Thanks, Brad

Brad - you put the classes in a class library project. Then in the
solutions where your using the library, you add the project to your
solution. Then, in the project that is using the classes, when you add
the reference, add the reference to the project in your solution
(projects tab on the references dialog box). Then anytime your or
anyone else makes changes, those changes will be reflected anytime you
ge the latest version of the source (you are using source control).
 
Perfect. That sounds like that is what I want for sure. We are using source
control.

Thanks, Brad
