Want some C for today?

Hi,

I haven't written C program for years, I have this C program I need to
implement into our VB.NET application. The C program is released by the PC
manufacturer along with the system driver and DLL, but of course it doesn't
have a VB.NET version. The DLL provides function to read the CPU and System
Temperatures. At the bottom is my attempt in VB.NET, but I am getting zeros
from these functions. Any idea what I am doing wrong? What is the
equivalent of "GetProcAddress" in VB.NET?

Thanks!!!

Is the dll in the GAC or have you added a reference in vb.net?
