Not interested in Cash reward but am curious as to what .dll..?
many a .dll's functions have been wrapped, perhaps your .dll has already
been wrapped by someone, just ask....

 It's easy and fast with WMOTOR

include motor.eu

library("the.dll")
declare("SomeFunction1",3,u) -- 3 parms returns unsigned value
declare("SomeFunction2",0,s) -- 0 parms returns signed value
declare("SomeFunction4",4,u) -- 4 parms returns unsigned value
declare("SomeProcedure",3,n) -- 3 parms

record("NameOfStructure",    -- describe the Structures.
  "szName      : pointer : 1 "&
  "SecretValue : ulong   : 1 "&
  "szPassWord  : pointer : 1 ")

Don:

   motor.eu is an include file (library) that can be used to
   do both Windows, X-Windows programming or can be used to
   access any custom DLL on either OS system. The advantage
   is that to use a dll function/procedure all you have to
   do is declare it. To use a structure all you have to do
   is describe it using the record function.
  

record("NameOfStructure","DescriptionOfStructure")
   example:
   record("POINT", -- name of structure
"x:long:1 "&  -- member name is x. value is long integer. number of long
     integers.
"y:long:1 ")  -- member name is y. value is long integer. number of long
     integers.
   library("dll_where_function_is") -- selects which DLL to use for declares.
   -- Note when a DLL is selected it is in effect for each declare
   -- until the next DLL is selected; library() only effects declares. 
   example: library("user32.dll")
   declare("some_function_name",#of_parameters,TypeOfReturn)
   -- TypeOfReturns  u - unsigned s - signed n - none (which is a procedure)
   example: declare("ScreenToClient",2,s) -- 2 params. returns signed.
   -- using a function
   example:
   atom RetValue, lpPoint
   lpPoint = struc("POINT") -- create a point structure.
   RetValue = f("ScreenToClient",{hMyWindow,lpPoint}) -- call the function. 
  

   If you understand windows programming, you should be able
   to look at the demos which are highly commented; and easily
   understand it's use.
