Need examples of calling VB.dll from Fortran

[LErdman]

I read the thread about "Calling Visual Basic DLL from Fortran" and tried to duplicate what VB Visitor did and Phi!31's reply but to no success. Does anyone out there have any success cases or examples they can share with me. Also has anyone had any success calling a VB.net DLL from Fortran?

Thanks,

Hi,
It is not necessary to use COM to call external DLLs from fortran code. I have some experience and I have already used fortran code that called Delphi functions so I suppose that calling VB DLLs is not very different. You need to take care about the naming conventions used in both codes but when using the same there is no reason that this would not work (I have no experience on VB.net DLLs but I think that they are not so different from standard DLLs).
