Hi,

I've been asked to write VB.net code for working with Windows Address Book WAB files (VCard) (please don't ask why!) In order to access the IWABObject interface, the file wab32.dll needs referencing.

However when attempting to add the reference VS2005 comes up with:

A reference to '<path>wab32.dll' could not be added. Please make sure that the file is accessible, and that it is a valid assembly or COM component.

This is because the DLL is pre-.NET unmanaged code. I've tried moving the DLL to the project's \bin folder, creating an interop assembly using tlbimp.exe (nothing gets created), but with no joy.

Can anyone help?

thanks

Simon G
