If your targetting the DLL at VB, I'd recommend you forget about DLLs
and write OCXes instead. The App Wizard and Class Wizard make it very
easy to write C++ code that interfaces to VB. Plus with OCXes you can
easily fire events in VB and not have to worry about a ton of Define
Function statements.
