EXE contains entry-point through which we can execute exe file. while dll doesnot contain entry-point. so we cant execute it. 2. EXE is a executable file which runs in seperate process managed by os. while dll is a dynamic link library (link at runtime) which used in exe or in other dll files. 3. EXE is an out-process file and dll is a in-process file. http://dapfor.com/en/net-suite/net-grid/tutorial/data-sorting
