Problem in Developing Setup consisting of DLL

Dear Experts,

We have developed an application which requires DLL's. In making the Set Up for our application, We have changed the property of DLL to SelfRegister.

After installation on client side the application crashes on using module which requires DLL.

Kindly let us know how we can make the Set Up so that our application runs succesfully and also doesn't requires registering DLL on Client Side.

Regards,
Mayank Srivastava

It depends on Dll type. If this COM Dll, it must be required. If this is unmanaged non-COM Dll, it should be in directory available from client:
executable directory, current directory, system and Windows directories, directory listed in the PATH environment variable.
Managed Dll is searched by the same way as unmanaged, and it can be also placed into Global Assembly Cache.

What is your Dll type?
