Ok maybe one more dll question

In AutoCAD VB IDE you go to tools/reference and select the dll file you
want. Is it possible to load these programmatically within my program rather
then selecting them manual?

Thanks again,

That's exactly what you're doing when your code
calls GetObject() or another sub that creates an
ActiveX object. The loading of the DLL is done
transparently by Windows.

Do you mean to dynamically add references to your
project at runtime? What for? The only purpose
of referencing the type library of a class at
design time, is for the purpose of code checking,
intellisense, and early vtable-binding (vb binds
method calls to the virtual method table of the
ActiveX object and does not have to look up the
methods address each time you call it, in that
case).

If you did not reference the type library at
design time, you could not declare or use classes
or types defined in the type library, and hence,
you would have to declare all classes from same
"As Object".
