File not found when loading dll from vb6

Question

I am declaring and calling a dll function using the following syntax in VB6:

\'Declare the function
Private Declare Sub MYFUNC Lib \"mylib.dll\" ()

\'Call t         


        

Answer 1

The .dll must be in the current "working" directory (or registered), otherwise at run-time the application can't find it.

Do:

MsgBox "The current directory is " & CurDir

And then compare that with what you were expecting. The .dll would need to be in that directory.
