Change the Definition to:

DECLARE long IORead IN SomeDLL.dll ;
long numChannels, ;
INTEGER @ channelIDs, ;
string @ input, ;
string @ state


>
>numChannels = 4
>channelIDs = CREATEBINARY( ‘0123’)

change this to:

channelIDs = 0x00010203


>input = space(4096 x 4)
>state = space(4096)
>
>errorNo = UORead (;

The * prefix is incorrect, to pass by ref, use:

errorNo = UORead (;
numChannels, ;
@channelIDs, ;
@input , ;
@state ;
)
