Assemblies and Application Blocks problem

Hi everybody
I do not have Visual Studio. I only use Notepad and WebMatrix. My problems
are :

1.
I have DotNet Framework installed and it is working fine. I have Env.
variable as follows :
Variable = vbc
Value = C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v1.1.4322\vbc.exe
But when I try to make an assembly of myself by using the following command
from WinXP's command prompt
vbc /t:library /out:FileName.dll FileName.vb
It says
'vbc' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program
or batch file.
Can someone tell me how can I make my own assemblies ?

2.
I downloaded and installed Data Access Application Block. In the articles I
read on the net and in the documentation it talks about
opening Application Block Project in Visual Studio and build the project.
What should I do if I do not have Visual Studio. Can someone tell me the
steps how to fix this or give a link to an article.

Thanks in advance
