Just copy it from another WinXP system directly to the target system. No
need to re-install just for one dll.

You can add the DLL as a file resouce to your component, and you might have
to register the DLL.

Hi Sean,

I have included the dll in resource file and after the fba it is there in my
directory , but not in the bloody assembly.
Under xp i have to drop it with 2 explorer screen from my directory to
c\windows\assembly.

If it wasn't after FBA, I would say use the runonce resource in a custom
component. You could try to run the command using FBA Generic Command
resource in a later phase after .NET has been setup.

Otherwise, Post-FBA setup is not uncommon and is done all the time.

Hi all,

I have tried Run onces request in my resource component with flag 1, but my
command was lauched too early,
with the resource fba generic cde i have got the error can t load the image
mycde.cde ??( i have added the cmd component in the TD).
Finally i put my dll in
\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727\BaseAssemblyListV20.txt.
I is not clean but it works.

Regards.
