adding a reference to a file on the server
 
Hi ,

I have to add a reference to my ASP.Net project (a reference to the MySql connector Net dll) ... here is where I am unclear... i only have limited ftp access to this server (to my virtual directory)... how to do get my code to reference the dll in the virtual directory on the server... i tried add a web reference but it would not work

Thnx

To add further details: I tried opening the project via File>Open website in visual studio 2005 professional and then added the reference by going to My network places, logging into the ftp from there and selecting the DLL from the correct folder on the FTP and then saving. As a result I get this error when I try to access my page:

:
