how to go about adding a reference to an assembly at run time? I am writing a vb.net (2008) program that will send email via Outlook. But at compile time I do not know which version of Outlook the user will be using - Outlook 2003, 2007 or 2010.
How do I add a reference at runtime which will a) satisfy this condition and b) allow me to compile the program? If I do not have a reference at compile time then my Outlook code will fail

I am going through a problem, i want to add some dll in my Project from another location.
Scenerio:
1-I am using a third party control
2-Installed it
3-All dll are in reference list, if i add them from their default folder and make local copy true,it works fine
i want to add them from "MyFolder"??How to refer them in my project?? current it gives error like
"could not load file or assemblies..*.dll.."
I've added a COM reference to one of my projects (the DLL resides in C:Program FilesIntwerwovenWorksiteiManage.dll) but when I view the References in my project the path is something like c:usersusernamedocumentsvisual studio 2008project nameobjdebugiManage.dll..I seem unable to edit this path. I can remove the reference and re-add it using the browse button, picking up the correct dll but it keeps showing as the path of the project.The application works on my development machine but as soon as it's deployed to a client machine it complains of the missing DLL. Of course, the DLL is present but the app is looking in the debug folder.

1 - Menu Project / Add Reference / tab COM / Microsoft Excel 11.0 Object Library / OK
2 - Menu Project / VB Properties / References / Add / Microsoft Excel 11.0 Object Library
Both methods didn't work.

Lets say that I had three TextBox's and they are named TextBox1, TextBox2, and TextBox3, is there a way to do like TextBox And Rand(1,3).Text = Nothing? Something similar to this where you click a button and it will choose at randomly a textbox to clear?I know I could do like Dim Number = Rand(1,3)if Number = 1 Then TextBox1.Text = Nothingend ifif Number = 2 Then TextBox1.Text = Nothingend ifor use else if and such, but I have 12 different textbox's, not three, so, I want to shorten the code, if you could do something like TextBox And Rand(1,12).Text = Nothing that would defenitely be way shorter, can you do anything like that to put together "TextBox" and the number to reference the control? I am not looking to use the full controls list to search for the right control nor to make an array that contains the controls, I just want to reference them without adding extra arrays or searhing for them.

View 2 RepliesI am opening frmB (variable for FormB - the actual form) from frmA. From btn1 I open frmB like this:
frmB = New FormB()
frmB.Show()
From btn2 (frmB is already open) I bring frmB to the front from behind frmA:
FormB.Show()
FormB.BringToFront().
No problem so far. Now I need to pass an arg to frmB. This is where I am having the problem.
from btn1 (in frmA) I do this:
frmB = New FormB(myArg) '--pass myArg to constructor of FormB -- no problem here
frmB.Show()
then from btn2 -- this is where I have the problem
FormB.Show()
FormB.BringToFront()
I tried placing myArg in FormB.Show(myArg) but that did not fix the problem. What is the correct way to pass myArg to FormB (frmB) in this scenario? Do I need to share FormB or frmB? How do I do this? "frmB" is frmA level variable.
