Well, it was a long time reading posts in this forum. Finally I decided to register. I hope I could help and be helped
I´ve read some days before a question regarding the programming of plugins under Visual Basic. It's not possible with the original linker, cos it can only write ActiveX DLL, not real DLL.
Then I remembered to have seen an alternate linker that allows to compile real DLL with Visual Basic. I saved the link in HD, and here it is.

Well, I haven't tested it, so please use at your own risk. Use your antivirus before testing it.
Good luck!!
