I am trying to use a DLL, but don't really know what I am doing. I have looked around for some info on it, and think I have things included right, but I get an "ERROR 48, DLL not found". The DLL is in the folder of the project I am working on. Do I need to register it or do any other referencing than just declaring the sub routines inside of a module? As In: Declare Sub PPInitialize Lib "DParallelPort.dll" ()

Update: I tried using regsvr32 to register the DLL, and get an x485 error stating that it couldn't find it. ??? Thoroughly confused now.

I have always put my DLL's in the WINNT\System32 folder. Also, If you are compiling the DLL for a second time, you will need to unregister the previous version using regsvr32 /u {dll name} and then register the newly compiled one. I got into this trouble at one point.
