I have an 'dll' file which I wish to use in an Access 2000 application. In order to do so, is it possible to create a reference to it like in Visual Basic and then create an instance of its object. Alternatively, do you have to decalare its methods as you would with an API call?

If the DLL is multi-user-enabled and properly registred in the Registry then you just have to set a reference (VBE window) on the DLL and use its functions as "usual".
Declarations are i.g. used for Windows system libraries.
