bad file name or number

[Steve C. Orr, MCSD]

I'm assuming your VB.NET dll does some kind of file access.
When it runs from ASP.NET, you're (by default) running under the ASPNET user
account.
Make sure this user account has the necessary permissions to the folder(s)
that your DLL is accessing.

I hope this helps,
