Strong Name for Shared Assembly

Hi Guys,

I am trying to write a shared assembly following the
procedure in "CodeNotes for VB.NET" on page 104, chapter
5. I was instructed to create a VB Class Library and make
it sharable by right clicking on the project in Solution
Explorer and selecting properties. There is supposed to
be a property called "Strong Name" under the common
properties. I get all the properties shown in the example
in the book except for Strong Name. What do I need to do
to get this property?

Thanks,

John

Strong name options are set in the AssemblyInfo.vb file, with the
AssemblyKeyFile or AssemblyKeyName attributes. The property page was
only there in some beta versions of VS.NET if I recall correctly.
