    actually, windows .DLLs contain functions written in C.

    You can make your own by telling your C/C++ compiler that you're making a DLL, not an EXE, then using the VB "alias" statement to tell VB what the mangled name of the function is (and what DLL it's in) and then just calling the C/C++ function from VB. This if for functions, not classes.
