- Does anyone know how to call a file from a DLL made in MS VC++ or Borland
- C++. I can make a DLL to add integers together, but that's about it. I
- want to use a DLL to manipulate an Array of data, or data in a file, and
- then be able to return this stuff to VB. For instance, take and array of
- 10 numbers, from a VB app, call the DLL function which adds them together
- or something, and returns the sum. Another example would be calling the
- DLL from VB that gets 10 numbers from a text file and returns the sum.
- If these kinds of things aren't possible, or if using a DLL to do these
- things is stupid, then you can call me a moron, it wont hurt my feelings
- much. Also, if MFC makes you happier than a pig in @#!%, then dont pick
- on me for using VB. I think VB is easy enough for user interface. When
- you write your response (if anyone actually reads my message this far)
- please keep in mind that I am just a Physicist trying to learn something
- new (dont spare any details unless you're really in a hurry). Thanks for
- your patience.
- Oh, and if you want to e-mail something, please mail to eas1171@sjfc.edu,
- I am not in my account, and I am not quite sure how all this newsgroup
- stuff works anyway. - Thanks again (in advance)
