You most likely need to give it the full path to the .vb file.

Code: 
C:\>vbc /t:library C:\My Documents\Projects\MyDLL\Class1.vb

Or wherever it is on your computer.

Do you mean VB.NET, or VB6? If you mean VB6, you can't reference
it there without first compiling it as a COM DLL (look in the MSDN for
info on that). If you mean VB.NET, then you'll need to give us more
on what you're doing and what you're trying to do.

This is not a straightforward topic. For more information on exposing .NET DLLs as COM objects, see the following help topic in the framework SDK:
