Thanks everybody for helping out...

>A .NET dll cannot be used directly in VFP. You either have to use third party utility like .NET Extender for VFP or read up at http://west-wind.com/articles.aspx on how to use interop.

>>The Developers also told me that in the VB and in C# sample code, they ADDED the DLL to their "Project". So, I went to VFP Options, and then "Controls". The problem is the EncryptionManager is not even listed there either, for me to drop it to a form.
