.NET3.5

I need, within the next few days, to create a system management DLL to format a specified drive, and a test app (managed code)to call the DLL.

This need to be implemented in .NET 3.5 / VS 2008. I am an absolute beginner and have been trying to get my head around COM and WMI, but both seem to have been superceded, and I need really basic, step-by-step guidance (i.e. "Click 'File > New ... etc.)

Any pointers to suitable search terms, tutorials, etc., would be greatly appreciated.

Well, if this is for a class, then I guess your teacher needs to be told that he's not taught you properly. If this is paid work, when you're an 'absolute beginner', that's obviously a disgrace and it would undermine our industry and our job security for us to do the work for you.

This forum is for programmers who need specific help. People with a spec and no idea how to do the work should really use the job board to offer to pay someone to do the work for them.
