Hi Tommysaurus,
Does anyone know how to call a DLL from VBA if the DLL uses a 'cdecl'
calling convention?

Here's a KB article that addresses this:

Sounds like you'll either have to either 1) recreate the DLL using the
_stdcall calling convention OR 2) create a wrapper DLL using the _stdcall
calling convention.
