To 'glue' the dll into e exe resource you need to use the tool designed
just for that purpose ZipResMaker.
The tool has an easy GUI interface that lets you select what you want to
store in the resources. the resulting file is ZMRes.Res or something
like that ( check the help file) and you have to include that ZMRes.res
file into your application.
Don't set the DLLDirectory property in ZipMaster.
When needed ZipMaster will uncompress the resource and created a
temporary dll that will be used until the application finished then the
temporary dll is removed.
