RE: Umm...help? Cruisinr (0 replies, 0 views) (2000-May-9) hi ive read that using DLL"s no matter what language you are writing in greatly increases speed and performance. and that it would be faster than storing certain procedures you call regularly in a bas module.
(im a newbie) i dont want you to teach me stuff really i just want to understand certain things so i can move on from there.
how would you write a .dll in vb? do you use same VB code or does it involve hard to learn syntax? what project do you choose to open to start your DLL? like obviously it isnt a 'Standard Exe'
i think i had 2 more relating questions but i forgot...
oh. if you are programming a game, wouldnt you want .dll's instead of just your code being in modules and the main frm?

A COM DLL is an ActiveX DLL (you know basically like the DXVB DLL) NOT a control (it's added in References, not in components). The "standard" type of DLL, is things which require function calls (like the win32api) such as Declare Function blah blah "MyString.Dll" blah in your general declarations.
