Unmanaged DLL's

[Guest]

I need to access an unmanaged DLL but I dont know too much about it, Im not
even sure its a COM-object. How can I find out?

Try running from the command line: regsvr32 <dll path name>. (regsvr32.exe
should be in c:\windows\system32)

If the dll is a COM server you should get a success message box.

The DllImport is for Non-com dll, if it's a com dll, you just need add a
reference from visual studio, and then declare the object, all its
methods, it should be good to go..

HTH.

Registration went fine, thanks. Now I need to get to its methods from my C#
code, can I just go ahead and do:

[DllImport("DLLname.dll")]
public static extern string METHODNAME(String h, String s);

and expect it to work?
