I want to pass data between a VB6 front and a COBOL dll back.  Can anyone
tell me what I'm looking at here?  Can VB6 find the entry point in any COBOL
dll?  Does it depend on the COBOL compiler?  Is there a particular COBOL
product (compiler) that works better with VB6? i.e. Microfocus; CA
Realia......  Are there runtime files involved?  License and or Royalty
issues with distribution?

I'm still searching sites for this information.......they just don't seem to
have the content needed to answer these questions.

Thanks
Art
