Will a method be included in later releases of the win32 to
provide access to external variables in the dll's?

From what I've seen, the WIN32 API is not based
on access to external variables. Just calls to routines
(and access to "resources" etc.)
If you made your own C .DLL that is callable from
Euphoria, you could use something called "shared memory"
in WIN32. It lets you share a block of memory among
many different programs that are running.
You can also return a pointer from a C .DLL to a Euphoria
routine, where the pointer might point at some variable
or large data structure.
