Bonnie,

Thanks for the link, as far as I can see Reflection is not the only way to get this done. I found some interresting code to play with from the article, however when trying to rewrite/adapt the code from C# to my VB project, I obvoiusly stumbled somewhere because the compiler just won't do the magic. When calling ICodeCompiler.CompileAssemblyFromSource I get an error saying:

Could not find file "C:\DOCUME~1\ASPNET\LOCALS~1\Temp\ylev4xcq.dll
(Different .dll file for each time)

Here is the code

Dim oCompProv As New VBCodeProvider
Dim oComp As ICodeCompiler = oCompProv.CreateCompiler()
Dim oCompParams As CompilerParameters = New CompilerParameters
oCompParams.ReferencedAssemblies.Add("System.dll")
oCompParams.ReferencedAssemblies.Add("[some more stuff].dll")
oCompParams.GenerateInMemory = True
Dim oCompRes As CompilerResults = oComp.CompileAssemblyFromSource(oCompParams, strCode)

Is this because I'm not referencing all needed DLLs or am I off target somewhere else?

Thanks a lot
