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

If we were to introduce Visual FoxBase+, would we be able to work from the dotNet Prompt?
