I've thought about this myself and I believe that it could be done using the method described in this article: http://www.codeproject.com/KB/dotnet...nmanaged.aspx. If you don't want to know the details this might be of more help: http://www.codeproject.com/KB/dotnet/DllExport.aspx

However, if the user doesn't have .Net installed it will probably throw a nasty exception or just crash your installer.
