				I am brand new to WbeSphere MQ & pretty much a .NET baby as well.  I'm hoping someone can help.  I need to modify a process to use Websphere MQ (was previously using MSMQ), but when I try to add the reference to the amqmdnet.dll, it pops up an error box with the following:
 
 
A reference to 'C:\Program Files\IBM\WebSphere MQ\bin\amqmdnet.dll' could not be added. This is not a valid assembly or COM component.  Only assemblies with extension 'dll' and COM components can be referenced.  Please make sure that the file is accessible, and that it is a valid assembly or COM component.
 
 
When I spoke to the person who installed Websphere on my machine, he didn't know why it was doing this. |

				You might need to reboot, it is windows after all.
 
 
You can also look in the MQ .NET docs for gacutil commands. |

				Thanks for the quick response!  I have already tried to re-boot (when all else fails, right?!     )
 
 
I will look more into the gacutil commands to see if there is something there.  This was "supposed" ot be the easy part.    |

Wait until you discover the architectural differences between MSMQ & WMQ; then you'll think this was the easy part!

				| Your first clue is this:  In WebSphere MQ you can only read a message from a QLOCAL on the qmgr you are connected to. |
