That would be hard for me. Because I actually couldn't get it working. I'll try once again on my Win7 now.

I wonder.
Do I really have to use ILMerge?
Or is it possible to put the DLL into the resources and use it from there?
If so? How? How to use it when I've added the DLL into the resources?
And how should I set the reference to the DLL file when its in the resources?;0

You must understand that putting the DLL's in resources won't actually put the DLL's in your EXE. You must after building the application include the DLL's with it in the exact same directory or in the System32 directory. That's why when you install an application you see all of those DLL's begin copied to your PC. You MUST use ILMerge if you don't want to make an installer. Now I think that you understand the problem with DLL's. There are videos on YT, and actually I gave you a tutorial. There is also a GUI ILMerge version, Google it.
