Two questions....

[DiGiTaIErRoR]

First off, is there anyway to blt an image that has translucent parts, solid parts, transparent parts, i'm thinking a grayscale alpha channel then use that to blt it. Can anyone tell me how?

On a totally unrelated matter,
How can I call a DLL from within VB? It's a dll someone made me a while back and I lost contact with.

Thanks if you answer either or both of my questions.

#2) You mean calling a C++ DLL? Use a Declare Function statement.

Declare Function FindWindow Lib "MyDll" Alias "FindWindowA" (ByVal MyData As Long) As Long

If it's an ActiveX DLL then you must add reference to it by going to Project > References.
