It is possible to interface abritrary DLLs to VB.  It should be covered in
any "advanced" VB book.  Or, try some of the tutorials on the web.
Basically all you need to do is write function prototypes.  I.e.e see the
section titles "Using Your DLL in Your VB Programs" on
<http://www.boondog.com/..%5Ctutorials%5Cdlltutor%5Cdlltutor.htm>.  Of
course, this still requires a bit of understadning of C in order to create a
matching VB function prototypes.  but this tutorial should be a good start.
