GAC issues: Not able to access it from one of my assemblies.

[Smooth Criminal]

Here is the scenario, I am planning to use microsoft application
blocks and Exception block in particular. Since I planned to use it
from a number of applications, I wanted to install it in my GAC.

* I customized the Exception block to suit my needs
* I generated keys to sign the assemblies
* I created a deployment project and now have it installed in the GAC.

This all went fine, now the issue is how do I access the assemblies
that I installed in the GAC from my code.

I am not able to add a reference to the assembly not does it compile
without a refence.

I am using VS.NET 2003 (aka framework 1.1) on Windows 2000

Reference a copy of the assembly outside of the GAC.
