I am a newbie to this dll invokation.

I have a dll called abc.dll and this has three methods in it (a,b,c)

when i need to write an console app to invoke the dll, what methods should i follow.

In the header file

#import "abc.dll"

int main()
{

CoInitialize(NULL);

p = CreateInstance();

p->a();
p->b();
p->c();

Release();
CoUninitialize();

}

If could get a code sample that would be really great and point me to the reference as to which files i should be looking at to get the instantiation of the com object.

Thanks,
Rajesh.

#import doesnt work, you have to use direct Win32 API commands. More info aon creating and using DLL's here
