Help with type library .tlb file

Hi,

I was wondering if someone can help. I have created a class library and have generated and registered a type library (.tlb) file and have successfully managed add this in a project that I need to use this file.
The only problem is when I make the call to the class within this file it’s now looking for files that I have referenced within that library. I have tried copying all the files from my release folder to the location where I have the application without any success.
Any help would be appreciated.

Regards,

Ross

Ross,

I am confused what you are really working with, and I need to ask some preliminary questions:

1) .NET version?

2) Are you trying to create a .NET assembly that is accessible in COM?

Hi,

I initially created a library file (.dll) using visual studio 2008 (.NET 3.5) and was trying to reference this using a Microsoft access application (version 2003) that someone else has developed.

I asked another question the other day that allowed me to add this reference this via the access application by creating a .TBL file:
https://www.experts-exchange.com/questions/26831994/Help-adding-dll-file-to-MS-access.html
I then tried to call a class within this and the access application gave the following message:
"could not load file or assembly or one of its dependencies. The system can not find the specified file”

The message gave the name of a file that I reference in the visual studio application that I compiled as a .TBL file.

Cheers,

Ross
