Using 3rd party dll in a control

[Frush]

Disclaimer: english is not my first language

Hi, I'm using a 3rd party dll in a control and I'm wondering if there is a way to "attach" this dll to my project even if I can't add it as a reference.

I'm using this control in many applications and I would like that the "3rd party dll" get copied to every applications where I use this control.

Right now I have to copy/paste the dll in every bin folder because there is no "link" in my project and I dont know if this is possible or how to do it.

Also I would like this dll to be saved into sourcesafe (impossible right now)

Thanks in advance

You might want to use the global assembly cache

Oh I didnt realise you meant the GAC, I dont think this is what I need, from what I know of the GAC you need to install the dll in the GAC on each computer and this is exactly what I dont want to do.

My perfect scenario is

DevX does a GetLatest (source safe) on my control and automaticly get the "3rd party dll". I dont want to create a installshield just to be able to build the control.
