How would i use external dll's that i have downloaded, and use them with my applications, do i just have them included in standalone settings, and just use the functions for them like any other function....
Many Thanks,
Christopher

While you can't call DLL functions directly from within Revolution, you can get at them via VBScript. Here's a tip by Ken Ray:

However, the DLL cannot interact directly with the buttons, fields, graphics, etc. that are on your cards. Revolution has its own engine, and it is very well possible that it doesn't use the standard Windows controls to display stacks.
Hope this helped,
