Calling MS Visual C++ wrapper dll from C code application

[anon12]

Hello Everyone,
I am new to the programming world and doing a project for a friend. What is required of me to do is send an email from Outlook 2010 from a legacy C application (using Borland 5.02). I realize that I need a mixed mode (managed and unmanaged) wrapper to allow the C app to call C# dll. I have written a wrapper in MS Visual C++ and am able to send emails from this c++ wrapper(using a native app written in C++). I am using explicit linking, so that I can provide updates for the dlls without having to worry about keeping track of multiple files (lib files) to send for any patches/updates. Since my C++ to C# code is functioning properly I will only post the section that doesn't work (which is the C code to call the MS Visual C++ dll).
Example Code:
/******************C++ Code**************************************/
SendMail.h (C++ dll header for linking with Borland C app)
#ifndef SendMail_H
#define SendMail_H
#define DLLEXPORT __declspec(dllexport)
#ifdef __cplusplus
extern "C" {
#endif
DLLEXPORT int SendMail (char *To, char *From,char *Subject, char *Body);

#ifdef __cplusplus
}
#endif

#endif /* SendMail_H */

SendMail.cpp (C++ source code for sending mail)
#include "SendMail.h"
namespace MailWrapper //<<--Contains the C# dll
{

#ifdef __cplusplus
extern "C"
{
#endif
DLLExport int SendMail(char* To,char* From,char *Subject,char *Body)
{
Mail ^ mail = clsMail::clsMail_Instance->mailObj;
int ret=0;
EmailFields ^ mngdFields= mail->GetEmailFields(); //get fields from C# dll
String ^ strTo=gcnew String(To);
mngdFields->To=strTo;
...
...
String ^ strBody=gcnew String(Body);
mngdFields->Body=strBody;
/**************************End of C++ code**************************/

I am calling this C++ dll from C code(using Borland 5.02). I store the compiled SendMail.dll in my C application project folder. Since I am using explicit linking I only need the dlls. I have use the TDUMP, IMPLIB, IMPDEF and TLIB utilities to see if the SendMail.dll name decoration matches Borland's naming convention and it does ( I am not using the generated Lib files because I am using explicit linking). I also realize that the MS Visual C++ uses COFF and Borland uses OMF to generate the .lib file from dlls. I have also verified that there is no name mangling that usually takes place when going from MS Visual C++ to Borland .

newMsg.From="from@myserver.com";
newMsg.Subject="Test Email";
newMsg.Body ="Test body";
SendMailFromC(newMsg);

}

int SendMailFromC(msgFields newMsg)
{

SendMail_FromSDG setupMailFields;
HINSTANCE hinstDLL;

hinstDLL=LoadLibrary("SendMail.dll");
if (hinstDLL!=NULL){
setupMailFields = (SendMail_FromSDG) GetProcAddress(hinstDLL,"SendMail");
sentMail=setupMailFields(newmsg->To,newmsg->From,newmsg->Subject,newmsg->Body); //Program crashes here!!!
FreeLibrary(hinstDLL);
}
}

/**************End of C Code****************************/
I do get the address for SendMail function in the DLL using the GetProcAddress(). It seems that the issue occurs when I try to send the mail. Can anyone offer some advice with regards to the crash or other feedback?
thanks in advance.
