Serialize with dll is not is same folder as exe

[john]

I'm having a serialization problem. I have a dll, and one
of its classes can get serialized. but the dll and the
calling exe dont reside in the same folder or subfolder.

so serialization works fine and a file can be saved to the
hard drive. but deserialization blows chunks, because the
exe is looking in its own folder, or one of its sub
folders, for the dll, and the dll is in a totally seperate
folder.

is there a way to get this to work?

Try adding the DLL to the GAC. But since you getting some result, I believe
your problem is not finding the DLL, but rather fining the serialied file.
