Russ,

Actually, Friedrich already has. :} His "Call Dll Demo 2.sb5" illustrates
using Load DLL and using its handle in a Call DLL. That's really all that's
needed for Load DLL.

In my case, there are two differences from his example. I needed the Load DLL
calls as my Clarion DLL isn't doing that itself. Friedrich's example uses the
module handle in the function call. I didn't need that. So my Call DLL is
just a normal function call into the Clarion DLL.

What I wish I could document for others is the "why" of all this, or more
precisely, the specific conditions under which it is required. My guess is
that in a freestanding program the CW RTL would handle the loading of all the
required DLLs, and that bit is missing this utility DLL I have.
