I need to reference a dll from another server into this project. How can I do that? Thanks so much! Re: Add a dll reference from another server. Jibesh15-Jan-13 10:08 Jibesh 15-Jan-13 10:08  seriously!!. it's not a good idea to refer a file from a shared path. your application will fail if you try to deply/run in other PC. btw what's you real problem? and what is the role of the referring dll??

Garth J Lancaster15-Jan-13 10:14 Garth J Lancaster 15-Jan-13 10:14  as per jibesh - it doesnt sound like a good idea .. the most stable ways I can think of are a) get a copy of the dll for your dev machine - transfer by usb/email/carrier pidgeon b) map a permanent share to the machine where the dll is and reference the dll on the path Unless you're back in the good old days of c++ rpc, there's no way to request dll type services over the net (and even then, rpc requires/required a mapping and comms layer to do so) 'g' Re: Add a dll reference from another server.

So, nothing should be stopping you from copying the dll to your own machine / project folder and referencing it from this local location.
