About private and shared assembly

Hello!

If I select a private assembly in ILDASM I get a lot of information listed
 but if I select a shared assembly located at  c:\window\assembly(GAC) I
get nothing listed.
 So is this normal not seeing anything when using ILDASM on any
shared assembly located in the GAC.

 Now to my second question:
 If I create a shared assembly from a private assembly and then use
 properties on this it shows for example  the
 codeBase:file:///C:/TEST_DLL/ClassLibrary3/bin/Release/classlibrary3.dll
 but If I for example use properties on the Accessibility located in the
 GAC this codeBase shows nothing why?

 I mean the path to the actual Accessibility.dll should be displayed in the
 codeBase when using the properties.

Tony,
I think this was recently covered in this group. basically, the view you see
of the GAC (/assembly) folder is a custom shell folder extension view, you
cannot actually load the physical assembly or add a reference from there.

This little writeup I did may help:
