Hi,

I could give you an example, but that is only a small part of the
information you would need to get your DLL stuff up and running. I would be
best to read the help file (Win API) for information on Getprocaddress
e.t.c. Be aware of the fact that some DLL's use C calling conventions and
others use Pascal calling conventions (stack responsebility). (Delphi help
on 'stdcall' gives info on that issue).

www.deja.com (now Goole) gives you access to a large hystorical database of
this (and others) newsgroup.

Bert
