Never heard of someone trying to call VB.NET assembly from C by embedding Mono.
Have you tried to call the methods from C# instead of from C? Also, check that you didn't compile them with incremental linking (default on debug builds) as it puts an undocumented segment within the assembly, that prevents Mono from loading the assembly. Possible culprits, if both tests above pass OK: ++ vbc (the compiler that VS.NET calls) may generate assemblies with some undocumented characteristic, that Mono doesn't know how to deal (if such we wan't to know to implement it) ++ some support code in mono's implementation Microsoft.VisualBasic.dll, doesn't work as needed (doesn't seem to be it, but alas) Could you open a bugzilla case with details, and a short VB.NET assembly that causes the problem (the snippet of code that do your embedded calling)?
