Hello Helge,

not sure about WSE - may be worth investigating more on the X509Store class
(IIRC that was the name).

....but the "normal" way prior to .net 2.0 is using CAPICOM - a COM wrapper
around the CryptoAPI. You have to download that from microsoft.

Installing CA-certificate in certificate-store from .NET Helge Jensen

I've been looking at google for a method of adding a certificate to the
cert-store from C#. I would prefer something that doesn't popup
dialog-boxes -- but I'll accept just about anything.

I looked at certmgr.exe, but it would be rather sad to have to start
that in a seperate process -- and it seems to come with the visual.net
installation.

I also found some references to WSE, but got a bit confused about WSE
versions 1, 2 and 3, and whether WSE1.0 actually provided methods for
updating the store -- all the exaples seemed to read from it.

Anyone got any good pointers to articles, code, ...?
