<div>
Did you add a reference to the file?
</div>


<div>
I can't do an imports on it, says includes no public namespace or cannot be found.<br />
<br />
Also I am already inheriting another class. <br />
<br />
If I try to add it as a reference it states it is not a valid assembly or com component.

This tlb is actually used in legacy code using the following statements:<br />
<br />
&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;cwAssistant = Server.CreateObject(&quot;Cogsd<wbr />ale.Encryp<wbr />tion.Custo<wbr />merWebAssi<wbr />stant&quot;)<br />
&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; result = cwAssistant.getDecryptedVa<wbr />lue(result<wbr />, Session(&quot;KeysFileLocation&quot;<wbr />))<br />
<br />
but these do not work,it errors on the first one if I tried using those stating it cannot create the object.

I have a tlb library which I've added to my project as an 'existing item'. &nbsp;I can object browse to some of the components and the one I would like to use. &nbsp;<br />
<br />
If I object browse I can find it:<br />
<br />
Class CustomerWebAssistant<br />
&nbsp; &nbsp; Member of EncryptionSupport<br />
<br />
then if I try to instantiate the class in my code:<br />
<br />
Dim cwAssistant As New EncryptionSupport.Customer<wbr />WebAssista<wbr />nt<br />
<br />
I get the error that it is undefined.<br />

Please help

How do I refernce objects from tlb library in my code using VB?

Visual Basic .NET (VB.NET) is an object-oriented programming language implemented on the .NET framework, but also supported on other platforms such as Mono and Silverlight. Microsoft launched VB.NET as the successor to the Visual Basic language. Though it is similar in syntax to  Visual Basic pre-2002, it is not the same technology,

Visual Basic.NET

The .NET Framework is not specific to any one programming language; rather, it includes a library of functions that allows developers to rapidly build applications. Several supported languages include C#, VB.NET, C++ or ASP.NET.

.NET Programming

Programming includes both the specifics of the language you’re using, like Visual Basic, .NET, Java and others, but also the best practices in user experience and interfaces and the management of projects, version control and development. Other programming topics are related to web and cloud development and system and hardware programming.
