I have built two projects. One a dll wizard with a form added into it.
And another that is a console app. The project is purely a test project
and the Form is currently blank.

Here is the code inside the dll...
#include <vcl.h>
#include <windows.h>
#include "form.h"
#pragma hdrstop

#define DLL_IMP __declspec(dllimport)
#define DLL_EXP __declspec(dllexport)

#pragma argsused

void DLL_EXP ShowForm(void)
{
     TDllForm *NewForm=new TDllForm(NULL);
     try
     {
         NewForm->ShowModal();
     }
     __finally
     {
         NewForm->Free();
     }
}

BOOL WINAPI DllMain(HINSTANCE hinstDLL, DWORD fwdreason, LPVOID lpvReserved)
{
         return 1;
}
//---------------------------------------------------------------------------

and the code of the test project...

#include <stdlib.h>
#define DLL_IMP __declspec(dllimport)
#define DLL_EXP __declspec(dllexport)

extern DLL_IMP FormShow(void);

int main(int argc, char* argv[])
{
     FormShow();
     system("pause");
     return 0;
}
//---------------------------------------------------------------------------

This second project contains the lib from the first and the dll beside 
it. The thing is that somehow it cannot be linked.

[Linker Error] Unresolved external 'FormShow()' referenced from E:\DLL 
PROJECT\TEST\TEST.OBJ

What am i doing wrong?
