hi 1. U can find DLL files in ur bin folder of ur application folder
2.before adding to this dll file in another application u must place this dll file in GAC(Global Assembly Cache). The Reason is, if u place this dll in GAC u can use that dll file in any number of other application.
that means for example ur going to place one web1.dll(say) which is belongs to WebApplication1, u must place the web1.dll file whenever u want to use this web1.dll in webapplication2 otherwise no need.
Means the dll file which is in GAC is global for all the applications
i hope this will help u
let me know whether u catch my point or not?
All the best
Regards UmaMahesh.Ch

1. U can find DLL files in ur bin folder of ur application folder
2. if u want that dll to be iused for thatb particular application then u can copy it into the project directory in which u want to use and then add reference...if u want to use it in many projects then place it in GAC...
All The Best...

1.If u create an assembly u can use it for only ur application. U can find that in Bin folder or app folder.
2. If you want to use it for many applications u should put that into GAC.
To put that into GAC , u have to follow some steps.
i. U have to give strong name to ur assembly by using strong name tool sn -k assembly name It gives u the key pair and strong name.
ii. Now the assembly with strong name , U have to put that into GAC, to put that into GAc u have to use GAC tool which will add or remove ur assembly into GAC.
GACUtil.exe -i assemblyname
-i - tells that u r installing the assembly into GAC
if it is -u it tells that u r uninstalling ur assembly from GAC
By putting that into GAC, u can use it for different applications.
Good Luck
