ok, so I think my earlier post was a bit confusing. Here is a more
straightforward question:

I have a DLL called NYSiteP.dll with an exported function called
'SITE' that recieves 2 'char *' parameters. I need to load this
function at run-time. How do I properly use the 'LoadLibrary' and
'GetProcAddress' API functions to pull this off? The MSDN example,
of course, not very thorough or explanatory.  I have this code:

 Lib = LoadLibrary("NYSiteP.dll");
  
    if (Lib != NULL)
    {
        Proc = (MYPROC) GetProcAddress(Lib, "SITE");
        if (NULL != Proc){
            fRunTimeLinkSuccess = TRUE;
            (Proc) ( szRunTypes,(char *)&rntyptable);
        }//end if

        fFreeResult = FreeLibrary(Lib);

However, this won't compile because it says I have an extra 
parameter. For some reason, the compiler sees the definition of
'Proc' as VOID (*)(*char), which is not right, and I don't know
how to correct that to the proper definition of int (char *,char *)
in the eyes of the compiler. Thanks
