First post...woo hooo :)

I am new to sql (been working on it for about 2 weeks now)and have come to my first stump

I am installing a plugin for an application that requires an assembly file with a dll extension. My question is where is this file or how do I create it. I am 90% sure this file will contain the connection details to a particular sql server/database but that is as far as I have got. Any assistance will be appreciated.

Well...my advice is to look in the documentation for the plugin/application. Unless we are talking about installing an extended stored procedure there is nothing in sql server that deals with dll's from the user perspective (as far as I know).

Thanks for the reply. I had asked my friend and he gave me the same answer. All the documentation says is:

Installing a SQL Table Formatter Provider¶
In order to install a new provider, you will need its assembly, which is a file with DLL extension.

I have never heard of this :s

And don't worry, I have many questions to follow ;)
