Hi all !
I'm just about to use a DLL made in C++, I'll need some help to declare all "TypeDef" and functions in a vb fashion way.
PLEASE GIVE EXPLANATIONS thankls

The most important for now are the CONNECTION_ADDR type and the NetApiConnect method....

Can you help me to understand how the sruct should be declared in VB, and also the method ?
Here's how I declared the "API function in vb so far...

Private Declare Function NetApiConnect Lib "NetApi" (IN CONNECTION_ADDR * prConnAddr,
IN int nNumConnections) As Long

I'm now posting part of the .h file.

typedef struct {
CONNECTION_TYPE eType;
union {
SOCKET_ADDR rSocket;
MODEM_ADDR rModem;
COMM_PORT_ADDR rCommPort;
GENERIC_ADDR rGeneric;
};
} CONNECTION_ADDR;

typedef int (* LOG_CALLBACK)(
IN int nRid,
IN OB_LOG_ENTRY * prObLogEntry,
IN unsigned long nCallbackParameter
);

typedef enum {
SOCKET_TYPE,
MODEM_TYPE,
COMM_PORT_TYPE,
UNKNOWN_CONN_TYPE,
_LAST_CONN_TYPE
} CONNECTION_TYPE;

typedef struct {
unsigned long ulIpAddress;
char acHost[ MAX_HOST_NAME_LEN ];
unsigned short nPort;
} SOCKET_ADDR;

typedef struct {
char acCallString[64];
} MODEM_ADDR;

typedef struct {
int nPort;
} COMM_PORT_ADDR;

typedef struct {
char acData[ CONNECTION_ADDR_MIN_SIZE ];
} GENERIC_ADDR;



typedef struct _SESSION * SESSION_ID;
typedef struct _REQUEST * REQUEST_ID;
typedef int (* VIDEO_CALLBACK)(
IN int nRid,

SEEK_TIME_AFTER,
SEEK_NEXT,
SEEK_PREV,
SEEK_GET_TIME,
