Run Tools without DLL Files - Visual Basic 2008

Question

Hello,

I have a Windows Media Player with my application. And when I debug, it gives me someother dll files with the program, and it would be a pain in the butt to carry those files around with me. How would I get rid of these but keep my Windows Media Player implemeted to the program? Is their a way I can add this to the project files or something? If not does anyone know any othe good media players?

Thanks,

Kevin

I think what you're trying to say is that you want to compile your external DLL's into your executable so you can deliver one .exe file. Unfortunately this is not something easily done.

I found this post: http://www.developerfusion.com/code/4504/merge-an-exe-and-a-dll-into-one-exe/ where you have to use the program ILMerge to do it.
