Is there a way to generate a DLL file from Visual Studio Express without explicitly creating a DLL project?

EDIT: Maybe my thinking process has gone astray on me, but I am trying to setup NUnit, and thought is needed a dll to run it... Please correct me if I am wrong.

Yes, you can change the Project Properties|Application|Output Type to either Windows Application, Console Application or Class Library, thus by selecting Class Library you will output a DLL.

I struggle to think why you'd want to do this though?

How do you mean? What exactly are you after?

You can create an exe project and change the output type (project properties)... or you can use csc /target:library at the command line...
