      OK, so it looks like a COM dll to me, are you using Visual Studio to write your program?

        I'm quite a vb.net beginner and I lost my library-card so I have to wait a month before I can get a book about this: How do I load a dll file into my vb.net program?? (I'm only 15 so I'm not very good at vb.net)

        If you are talking about a Win32 API DLL, you do it like this: Declare Function (or Sub) (FunctionName) Lib (Dllname) Alias (Function Name in DLL) then the arguments. for instance: Declare Function MsgBox Lib "user32.dll" _ Alias "MessageBox" (ByVal hWnd As Integer, _ ByVal txt As String, ByVal caption As String, _ ByVal Type As Integer) As Integer Then you could call it like any other function. There is more info about this here: http://kpdweb.cjb.net/

                  If you're using PInvoke, you probably want to check out www.pinvoke.net, they may have done the hard yards for you already. I was 13 when I started coding. *sigh* That was in 1982. Christian Graus - Microsoft MVP - C++

                    The early 80s were a good time to start coding. :-D It brings back the memories. My dad borrowed a Commodore Pet from work when I was 6. A friend had a Sinclair ZX81 and then my dad bought a ZX Spectrum in 1983. ColinMackay.net Scottish Developers are looking for speakers for user group sessions over the next few months. Do you want to know more?

                      Yeah, I was aware of all those platforms. I learned on an Applle ][, only when I blew it up did I buy a C64, and then a slew of Amigas over the years. I often think if I'd not tried to build an NMI card, I'd be one of 50 people worldwide writing software for the Mac today. Christian Graus - Microsoft MVP - C++

                          teuneboon, If you want to put the Delcare Auto Function... in Class1 and then Call it from Form1, do this: Change the line in your Form1 Button1_Click that reads: MyMessageBox(0, "Hello World !!!", "Project Title", 0) Change it to this: Call Class1.MyMessageBox(0, "Hello World !!!", "Project Title", 0) progload
