Hi, I need to communicate between my vb programm with a sharepoint 2013 library.

Therefore, i am trying to get the reference set to microsoft.sharepoint.client.dll, but after clicking on 'add' on the references tab page, I get allways the message 'the system cannot find the reference specified'. This (i think) is very bizar because I browsed to the dll file...
What am i doing wrong??
Thx for any help!!

What is your environment ? Which version of VS are your using ? Is this a VB.Net project ?

VS version = VS 2005
The programm to be made has to run on the client pc and has to work with documents in de sharepoint library (on a SP 2013 server)

Solution 1

read Create a SharePoint development environment on premise[^]
check the hardware and software requirements for Sharepoint 2013 developments.
Anyway why VS 2005? if you are working with Sharepoint 2013 at least go for VS 2012 or later version.
