Hi Rick,
I'm quite confused.... Isn't it possible to call a C source file from
IDL just as made in
The documentation of IDL (online help of MAKE_DLL) inspite of using
the call_external fonction?
Is there a so huge difference?

During the install of Visual Studio I can't remember of beeing asked
this...

I should confess I don't unterstand what you mean with vsvars32.bat
file......

Do I have to reinstall the Visual C++ in the same subdirectory as IDL
in order
To get the things right?

Thanks
C.
