You need to look under the Microsoft.CSharp namespace. You can use the CSharpCodeProvider class and get a compiler using the CreateCompiler method. Something like (From MSDN)

// Create an instance of the CSharpCodeProvider class.
Microsoft.CSharp.CSharpCodeProvider provider = new CSharpCodeProvider();
// Call the CodeDomProvider.CreateCompiler() method to obtain an ICodeCompiler from the provider.
System.CodeDom.Compiler.ICodeCompiler compiler = provider.CreateCompiler();
compiler.CompileAssemblyFromFiles(...);

Technically, isn't C# code complied at run time? /\ |_ E X E GG

Not really, it's IL that's compiled at runtime. Regards Senthil _____________________________ My Blog | My Articles | WinMacro
