Help with dlls

I made a dll for a program I'm making and ran into an issue. The program only looks for the control in the directory where its refered to. How can I make it look for the dll in App.path or in the directorys defined in the Path global variable?

Re: Help with dlls

When you distribute your program on another machine, then make sure you have included your dll in the package. You can place it either in your application folder, or in system folder, just make sure you register it. Then your application will know where to search for it.
