I have a question about .NET components that I'm a little confused by.



I would like to make a component which will do nothing except return a

string that will function as the database connection string.  And I

would like to call this component from other business objects within the

same project.



I haven't quite figured out how to reference the database connection

string component when I compile the business object components with

vbc.exe/csc.exe at the /r: switch.



Can someone enlighten me on the process for this?  Must I put the true

physical path of the connection string component in the list of

references, or is there another way?



I tried a bunch of different ways and I usually get a "The Namespace or

Type 'DBConnection' for the Import 'EmpNet.DBConnection' cannot be

found" error... And yet Intellisense finds it for me when I am writing

the component... Puzzling!



Thanks for your help!
