Aaaaarrrrrh!

Thanks everyone, now have simple Dlls working.

The problem was cultural. The BlackBox Dll had a routine Gcd. We were
looking for GcD. I'm so conditioned to the compiler sorting this type of
error out for me, that I never looked carefully.

My customer, who uses Visual Basic & Delphi which are not case
sensitive, also never thought to look carefully - even though their
use of DLLs is case sensitive.

The missing labels in Quick View seem to be a complete irrelevance.


The moral of this story is that I probably won't know better next time!

Cheers

Robert
