Is there a 'how to' on creating a middle-tier DLL somewhere for vb.net?
I'm taking my application to the next level - I want to break out my code into a shared dll - so that I can also use it with an ASP version. I've never written a DLL before - where can I start to learn? I've searched MSDN, but wow - all I'm doing is weeding thru the pages rather than learning. Can someone point me in the right direction? How can I write, and then use, a DLL in vb.net (enterprise). Thanks!!! Mike Hi,
Create a class library project and just start adding classes to it.

A:Go fishing. ? If you've done it before, yes, thats probably all it takes. I'm looking for recommendations to well written tutorials. Books too, but I'm trying to get started quickly and stay on a tight timeframe. But more importantly, do it "correctly".

I am sorry, I might have misunderstood your question. I thought the question was how to create the DLL-type project in Visual Studio, but now it seems you are rather asking on what are the best practices on creating class libraries - or even breaking systems into tiers. Then you might start with this guide: http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/dnbda/html/distapp.asp?frame=true, especially paying attention to "Designing Business Layers" http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/en-us/dnbda/html/AppArchCh2.asp?frame=true#apparchch2_section4 Please feel free to follow up with more specific questions. -- Show quoteSincerely, Dmitriy Lapshin [C# / .NET MVP] Bring the power of unit testing to the VS .NET IDE today! http://www.x-unity.net/teststudio.aspx "mikeb" <m***@nohostanywhere.com> wrote in message news:e0jH5Ss%23EHA.2452@TK2MSFTNGP14.phx.gbl... > Q:How do you fish. > A:Go fishing. ? > > If you've done it before, yes, thats probably all it takes. > > I'm looking for recommendations to well written tutorials.

Thanks for this.
I'll spend some time going through the pages, and will check back if I have more questions. But from my brief overview, this is the type of information that I was looking for.
