Hello, how can I import a DLL that I made on Visual Basic?
Thanks, X-)

This topic is somehow not easy. And it would take a long repply, so I'll recomend to check the APPENDIX B from the User's Guide. (c5-ug.pdf which is installed if you choose to install the "Online Documentation&quot
I assume that you'd the Clarion 4 or 5 version, (dunno if the 5.5 has the same appendix).
flash review:

1. Check the VisualBasic and Clarion Data type equivalents.
2. Make the library file (*.LIB) for your DLL.
3. Add the library file into your proyect or App
4. Prototype the functions that you'll call.

.......
More info. check topic from "Online Help" -> "How Do I...?" -> "Using Windows DLLs NOT Created in Clarion"

and "Lenguage Reference" ->"Procedure Prototypes"

Bye.

Looking for news about Clarion, I review an old link, and found a page:

http://www.geocities.com/clarion_insider/

There you'll find several ways to import yor Visual Basic Dll, especifically the next:

Multi-Language Programming - Visual Basic and Clarion

http://www.geocities.com/clarion_insider/cw_vb.htm

And this page includes an app sample

Thanks alot for your replies, Ive tried the link but the
article talks about importing a dll from Clarion to Visual Basic.

Also Ive tried importing in the lib maker the Visual Basic
dll. But I get this on the screen:

----------------------------------------------------------
myDll.dll
DllCanUnloadNow 1
DllGetClassObject 2
DllRegisterServer 3
DllUnregisterServer 4
----------------------------------------------------------

Is this normal, or did I did something wrong?

Thanks.
Jose.
