I have a dll on the shared drive that I want to use in my Access database. I cannot add the DLL to my harddrive registry32 due to restrictions. My questions are - do I have to add the DLL to my harddrive to compile it for Access as it is compiled for .net now and do I have to declare it and if so is this the correct way below???

Option Compare Database
Private Declare Function GetSQLUserSecuAccess Lib "UserSecurity" _
 (strUserID) As String

Need to know more about the DLL.

If you add a normal .NET .DLL to a COM client, intellisense does not work.

But Microsoft strove to maintain the ability to have what they call COM interoperability.

I think that if you go to References, and browse to the dll and add it, you should be able to make a call to it by using its namespace and the function name. (You won't be able to tell if it works till the app is run, since intellisense won't be working.)

Does anyone know how to access a dll in .net with C#?

I am trying to create a screen to change a password but I this dll to encrypt my password.

Can anyone help me, please?
