Hi Rick, Well I did but what happens when the source files (generated by a mapping tool) get regenerated. I want something which can pick up the new copies, "fix" some of the names and whatever and then build the new dll. I think the mapping tool has an api. May need to look into that.

What about just putting all the classes into a single project and then creating one dll using the VS? I'm guessing you already have thought of that but I just mention it because sometimes the old gray matter just blurps.

What I need is to add a bunch of .cs files to a project, change some method names in these files and then build a .dll Is a wizard the best way to accomplish this. The only things that I know are: 1. Some of the .cs files will be the same every time. 2. Some will be different. Currently we have a bunch of dlls based on names such as mapinvoice and mapcreditmemo. What I want is one dll which calls methods for these functions. These source files are being generated by another program. Thanks for any advice. Rick
