I assume you are referring to functions exported by native DLLs. Yes, you
can consume such functions.

How?

Keywords: platform invoke (p/invoke), 'DllImport', 'Declare'.

hi zon,
it is possible through "PInvoke". search for the term in msdn. you'll
find lots of examples and information.

Zack,
In addition to the other comments.

If you're referring to the Win32 API, I would recommend you also look here:
