Read assembly information ???

Dear all,

I need to read certain assembly information from an
application.
I do not want to add the reference to those assembly
inside my application.

I have in my application a browse button whcih is able to
point to the folder where assembly are located.

Then I need to fetch information fro each of those
assembly but in order to read them I need to load them.

by running the code assembly.Load("myassembly.dll") do not
work it report error of file not found or assembly
component reference missing... I have also try to put the
full path as parameter but no luck..

Do I have any idea how can I load it properly ? do I need
to use the the Appdomain.CreateInstanceAndUnwrap function?
if yes how can I retrieve assembly infor

thnaks for your info
regards
serge

Serge,

Use Assembly.LoadFrom rather than Assembly.Load
