Use dll in Visual studio C#

How do I use the iSEDQuickPDF.dll in Visual Studio 2005?

When I try to add a reference to it I get this error.

A reference to 'C:\iSed\iSEDQuickPDF.dll' could not be added. Please make sure that the file is accessible, and that it is a valid assembly or COM component.

I thought the dll might need regestiring , but that resulted in this error.

iSEDQuickPDF.dll was loaded but the DllRegisterServer entry point was not found. This file can not be registered.

I found an old pdf with Tutorials
Using iSEDQuickPDF with C#
It tells me to make a wrapper

If you would rather use the DLL version of iSEDQuickPDF, find the iSED0433DotNet.cs file in the DLL .zip distribution. Compile
it into a managed code library:
csc /t:library /out:SEDTech.iSED.dll iSQP0433DotNet.cs

Where can I find the cs file?

	I don't know much about C#, but maybe you should try the ActiveX version (iSED.dll), which will have an entry point, and must be registered.

	iSQDQuickPDF.DLL is not a COM server and you cannot add reference to this DLL (Interop Assembly). The only way to work with this DLL is using function prototypes with DLLImport attribute. To use Interop DLL (this is the recommended way to use QuickPDF) you have to use the iSED.DLL. Register this file as COM Server and add a new COM Reference. Best regards, Marian
