so, I feel that the last three years of learning dll and .net and progress is now in the bin.
I can't get a .net component to load into OEA
11.1
this dll has no development licence restrictions, and I have not had a problem before in adding it as an assembly reference to numerous other machines,
The machine is running windows 7 64-bit (as are my others)
when I try to add it to the assembly reference, I get the error "the following library could not be load".
why ? why couldn't it be loaded ? what is the error ?
grrrrrr.
The dll is there in the folder I choose the damned thing
so, I feel that the last three years of learning dll and .net and progress
is now in the bin.
/bin is indeed where DLLs are typically stored. So it's not been a complete waste.
Only 2 (basic) thoughts: is the -assemblies parameter pointing to the right folder? And is there anything in the workspace .metadata/.log ?

oh, I am _so_ not clicking on the "helpful answer" button ...
no, there's nothing in the .log file.
the IG controls have loaded though ... but not this one, nor any of my ipworks dlls either
I have also tried to copy the dll to progress/bin and project root directory to no avail
ok, found the problem.
I got these dll's from a dropbox account of mine, Windows 7 "protects" you by "blocking" these files from use until you approve them.
right-mouse-click, properties, unblock ....
grrrrrrrr
Hello,
I am glad to know that you have solved the issue.
I wanted to mention that the Fusion Log functionality in the .NET framework could have been used to determine the cause of the problem.
