Vb.Net Make dll that contain one function. Help Please.
I would like to call a function from different applications.
I think i have to make a dll.
I have Visual Basic.net 2003 Standard Edition, that teorically does
not make dll,
but pratically does.
I search vbc.exe and copy it to a new folder, in which i have the
following batch file
Make a New folder.
Search "vbc.exe" and Copy it to the new folder.
Make a new Batch file, whith the following code and name it
"Create_Dll.bat:
Create_Dll.bat
"vbc.exe" /target:library /out:My_dll
/reference:System.dll,System.Data.dll,System.Drawin g.dll,System.Windows.Forms.dll,System.XML.dll
"My_Code.vb"
pause
Of course "My_Code.vb" contains the dll code.
I would like to put there a function i can call from any application.
Just as example there is a simple function by: Tom Harris at the
following address
http://www.planet-source-code.com/vb...2553&lngWId=10
that removes unwanted chars.
using that function as example how would the code be in "My_Code.vb" ?
Can somebody help ?
Best Regards.
Robert.
