Excel and VB DLLs

[alkatran]

For fun, I took one of my vb games, compiled it as a DLL, and ran it from excel.

It worked fine, except for a few things:
Using a msgbox or inputbox caused an error
If I restarted the game, I would start at the level I was at when I quit

So my questions are:
Can I use a msgbox somehow?
Do DLLs store the value of variables?? Or do they reset everytime I reference it?

using the dll i would replace all msgbox's with a custom form - you can build a form inside the dll

in this way you can save the values to a ini file that the dll can later read .

Good Idea on the file
