Without more information :-

Is your DLL in a place that is accessible ?
The DLL should be in the \WINDOWS directory or the same directory
as the program that calls it.


Prototyping your function in C should be something like:-

void FAR PASCAL function_name (LPSTR lpstring);

The key here is the FAR and PASCAL keyword.


The corresponding VB declaration should be :-

Declare Sub function_name Lib "FUNCTION.DLL" (ByVal lpstring As String)

I do not know about passing by reference, my example show passing by
value.

I am also assuming you know how to create a DLL for VB. Like the
section of header code that identifies the DLL entry point.
The definition file that indicate the function for "EXPORT" among
other things.
