Embedding assemblies?

Is there any way to embed an assembly at all?

Working on a project and we want to embed one of our assemblies inside the application, but don't want to have to use reflection to load it from the resource file.  It would be nice if I could use it as I normally would when coding, and then when building, have it place it inside the current assembly and not link to the external assembly.

Tried searching the Visual Studio help to see if it was possible, searched Google and the ASP.NET Forums, but haven't found anything.  Is this possible, or is it just wishful thinking?

Would simple assembly linking accomplish the same task?
