Thomas,
I just had to deal with this one myself, for that same DLL. For some reason even when you use the fileset's "ASIS" attribute to force inclusion of the dll, CSC does not get search the GAC for the reference. Which seems a little odd, but I'm accepting that it's a good idea.
I can however tell you how we reference that particular DLL in a drive-letter-agnostic way:
<readregistry property="vs.pias"
key="SOFTWARE\Microsoft\.NETFramework\AssemblyFolders\Primary Interop
Assemblies\" hive="LocalMachine" />
...
<references>
<includes name="${vs.pias}ADODB.dll" />
...
</references>
...
hope this helps,
Bruce

I'm trying to link to the ADODB.dll library that is stored in the GAC. I'd like to be able to build using nant without using the full path to the file in the GAC. For example:
C:\WINNT\assembly\GAC\ADODB\7.0.3300.0__b03f5f7f11d50a3a\ADODB.dll
Is there some way to set up my references to avoid this? If not, is it a better idea to copy the DLL to my lib directory and treat it like a third party library?
