Reference compiled code

[RSfromCO]

I have a couple of functions that I need to have the source code NOT AVAILABLE to database users (not just hidden). I was hoping I could compile the functions into a DLL and add them as a Reference to my VBA.

I have Visual Studio .NET 2003 where I compiled my VB code into a DLL, but when I try to add a Reference to that DLL, MS-Access tells me it "Can't add a reference to the specified file.". Is it because my DLL was compiled using the .NET framework?

How can I achieve this ?

Why not simply give the users a MDE front end (no source at all in such file) ?

Hope This Helps, PH.
