How do I add a .dll

[d.allen101]

I'm trying to reference a .dll in my ninjaTrader strategy but I can't seem to figure out how to do this.

[VTtrader]

Put the .dll file in the My Documents\NinjaTrader 7\bin\Custom folder. Open an indicator in the editor by Control Center-> Tools-> Edit NinjaScript-> Indicator anyone will do. then right-click and choose "references", "Add" and create a reference.

it's not working. I went to C:\Program Files(x86)\NinjaTrader7/bin/Custom added the .dll. Opened up a custom strategy right click, add reference, located the .dll, added using My.dll but the IDE is not recognizing my newly added .dll file

[d.allen101]

the namespace is not being recognized

d.allen,

I think your directory is wrong, you want the one in My Documents\NT 7\bin\Custom directory, and then set the reference to that one.

it's still not working. I dont understand what's going on here. I'm doing everything correctly and it's still not working

Hello,

Did you create the DLL yourself or is it a third party DLL? If so which one?

I look forward to assisting you further.

It's a MySQL .dll

how do I reference System.Data?

[NinjaTrader_Brett]

C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.30319\Syst em.Data.dll

That path worked on my system.

I wasn't asking if it worked or not I was asking "HOW" do I reference it...

Hi d.allen101,

You can manage references from the NinjaScript editor. Right Click > References
