I want to call a dll created in C++ in VBasic. Unfortunatly some functions are named "Open" and "Close" and i can't declare them in VBasic because those words are used as syntaxes in VB. I changed the name of the functions in C++ but i could not compile it as dll just as exe (i got the sourcecode but i am really new in c++)

compile as dll

If the code was originally compiled using Microsoft Visual C++ then there should be a project or workspace files for it. These files end with .dsp for Project and .dsw and or mdp for Workspace.
There are other files that comprise the whole project you really should get these as well (.mak, .dep, .ncb, .opt) although not all of them may exist. But once you have these files you will be able to build the DLL again.
Or you'll have to create an empty DLL project and add your source file and compile.
