I have created a test application that consists of a small UI and a 'testdll' I created with a fully licensed product 'PowerTCP Emulation for .Net'. The application runs fine. I have now given my 'testdll' to another developer to reference in his application. It breaks when he compiles with the following error. 

C:\Temp\WindowsApplication1\licenses.licx Could not transform licenses file 'licenses.licx' into a binary resource. (1) : error LC0004 : Exception occured creating type 'System.ComponentModel.LicenseException'

The files I gave the other developer were 'testDll' and the Emulation.vt dll to handle the references. I had him create the licenses.licx file per the instructions and he still gets the error. Can he not make calls to the 'testDll' that I created ? It appears that the licenses file is only compiled in with the exe and not the Dll I created. What am I missing? I hope you can shed some light on this matter. Thanks

Since the other developer is using your DLL in compile time, he is therefore using our DLL in compile time and will in turn need to purchase a license.

When VB compiles the second app, it knows that it has a reference to a licensed control and calls the function that checks the license.
