James,
In addition to DF's case sensitivity points below, it's also possible that the function is called something slightly different than the docs say. Use
depends.exe (visual 6.0 tools on my VS install) to examine the dll and check the function name.
Cheers,
Andrew

>>Trying to access a dll called acrypt32.dll. Function is GetEC. I am getting a "cannot find entry point" error. I have checked the case and it still doesn't work. On the UT someone suggested creating an object, ie:
>>
>>Local oObject
>>oObject = Createobject("acrypt32.GetEC")

>>This returns the error: Class definition ACRYPT32.GETEC not found.
If we were to introduce Visual FoxBase+, would we be able to work from the dotNet Prompt?
