AFAICT, GetProcAddress isn't affected by calling convention.  It is 
mearly a string look up on what you give it.  What you do with the 
pointer (void*) it returns, is up to you.  You will get crashes if you 
declare the calling convention wrong, but the OPs problem was that 
GetProcAddress is returning 0.

Still, worth pointing out as that may well be his next problem after he 
has the address :)
