Hi,
i try to convert my apps from VB6 to VB2005.
in my old apps i use some my dlls written with CVF 6.6.
when i try to run it in VS2005 (VB2005) i have :

dllnotfoundexception was hunandled
unable to load DLL "pcroutdll.dll"

Obviously in VB6 it works fine....

Any idea?

Then it equally obviously works in VB.NET 2005.

'DLL not found' usually means one of the following:

1. The DLL was truly not found. It is either not on the PC, or not on the
searchable path. If in doubt, put a copy in <Windows>\System32; if it isn't
found there, then move to [2]
2. The DLL is found, but a dependency is not found - this is the true 'DLL
not found.' Usually this is the runtime library; sometimes the runtime
library, in its turn, calls a C/C++ runtime library. You will need to look
at the documentation to see what support libraries must be made available,
and, yes, they too must be on the searchable path. Microsoft used to
recommend that they should be placed in <Windows>\System32 - I gather that
that recommendation has changed, but that puts more onus on you to ensure
that the DLLs are found. With DVF the easiest way is to download the runtime
library support from the Compaq website, and run that - you will
automatically get all the DLLs and their dependencies installed. Start with
