Is it possible to allocate global memory via the DECLARE DLL commands in VFP? I tend to believe it's not possible because the function GlobalLock() returns a pointer to the memory allocated by GlobalAlloc() and as far as I know, VFP doesn't support pointers or structurs that are commonly used in the winAPI. A proprietary DLL i'm using requires allocation of memory before calling it's functions (one of it's args is the pointer to the memory). I would like to allocate the memory from DLL calls from my program, but I think I may have to create some sort of wrapper DLL that will act as the middleman between my application and the proprietary DLL.

Bottom line: Can I use GlobalLock via DECLARE? (GlobalAlloc() *seems* to work)

Thanks.
