I know this is probably a pretty basic question, but I just don't understand
how to do it.

I have a VB.NET project, with a reference to a .dll file which works fine.
What I want to do however, is include the .dll into the .exe file (of the
main project) when it builds. Can anyone tell me how to do that? Currenly
I
need to have the .dll file in the application folder.

Thanks,
Rod
