in .NET COM is normally done thru Interop in order to register .DLL in .NET they are called Assemblies and that can be done several ways.. by adding references via VS IDE at the project level, or writing code that Loads and unloads the assembly.. by .Config file that haas the reference to the assembly as well as the using of that reference within the project... GAC.

• If you have access to the 3rd party .DLL's you can GAC them, and reference them in your project
• you can add a using to your .cs file header as well as add the reference to the project by right clicking on reference --> add Reference ...
• you can also do the above step as well as set the copy local = true in the properties for that .dll.. I hope that this gives you some ideas.. keep in mind that .NET assemblies are Managed code so there are several ways to Consume those 3rd party .DLL's using other methods within C# like LoadFromAssembly ect..
