Sharing Variables in through a DLL

I have an activex dll that logs a user into a SQL server and stores some user info. I have 2 programs that could be using the dll at the same time. Is there a way to persist the info or whatever so that if the 1st program is logged in then the 2nd program can just get the information that the 1st program is using?

Like if TimeTracker (the 1st program) logs in thru the dll and the dll has the username and permissions can the 2nd program (NotesManager) just read the username and premissions from the dll instead of relogging in?

It's very easy
set the classes to Multiuser,
then insert an normal Modul
Declare the shared Variable as Public in the normal Modul

Alternatively declare some public properites.
These will be accessible to external applications.

When you initially log the user in with the 1st dll
set the property to whatever you need to be (username etc)

The when the secon .dll need to access the logged in name it can read from the property.
