Hi Garry

Did you miss the bit that says "P.S. I only ever distribute the exe file, 
The App never needs installing."

I don't want (because half of them cant) end users to install, far to 
complex a thing to do.
All sorted now, the dll file goes to Appdata\Local\ProgName and all is 
working fine.

Thanks for you reply

Ivar

I still see no posting from 'Deanna'
I wonder if there are other replies I'm missing?

There's some confusion with your explanation! What do you mean when you
say "how can I get my app to write the dll file..."?

A DLL needs to only reside in the App.Path to use it. Your app needs
only to declare the function[s] it wants to use. So now your app
distribution includes 2 files: exe & dll! Easy to zip and email, but
you could upload it to a web server where others can download the
update files.

Note that the DLL doesn't have to be *registered* on the system to use
it!

HTH
