How to create a DLL application with VB.NET?

[cherishman]

I want to create a DLL application with VB.NET, which can be used by
PowerBuilder. How can I do it?

Not sure what Power Builder is.

The only DLL you can create with VB.NET is either a control project or a
class.

Are you talking of a non MFC static DLL like you create in C++?

Here is an example that I created which creates a C++ static DLL & then call
it from VB.NET:

VB.NET cannot be used to create "standard DLLs". However, you can make your
classes available to COM (I don't know if PowerBuilder supports COM):

Crouchie,

Never heard of that governor from California, however you once wrote that
you don't like people who come from the country where he is born, maybe that
is the reason.



To enlighten you a little bit more serious.
