Hi,
I have an application where I have to use two dll files as reference to my project. The thing is, my dll files both have the same name, but are something like different versions. I am not able to add both as references becoz of clash in name. And I cannot change the name of one of the dll files, as it is a very huge task of changing other fragments of code.
What can I do to add both as reference. Someone help me please

To reference two assemblies with the same fully-qualified type names, an alias must be specified at a command prompt.Take a look …
As far as I know you can't do that easily. You could load one DLL in a separate app domain and access it via remoting. You could also "hack" one of the DLLs and change the version, namespace, name, etc.
To modify a DLL you need the .NET Reflector and Reflexil.
Assembly loading across appdomains:

Or that too, a much better approach :)
