I don't think so. The functions of the mfc40.dll are stored as 'classes' - which means that the<br />
exported names are not (at least in the usual way) accessible by any other application.<br />
One cause is that c++ classes pass a 'virtual function table pointer'(vftbl), which as far as<br />
i know is almost impossible to create without knowing the whole internal structure.<br />
To make it short: I think the effort to make mfc40.dll work with visual basic is much harder as<br />
simply simulate its functionality. Perhaps you could write a 'wrapper' dll which exports its<br />
functions in the usual way.<br />

That means that the functionality in MFC40 is not available in VB 5.0? I'm looking for a way to implement a docking function <br />

MFC Question

Most development for the Microsoft platform is done utilizing the technologies supported by the.NET framework. Other development is done using Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) for programs like Access, Excel, Word and Outlook, with PowerShell for scripting, or with SQL for large databases.

Microsoft Development

Visual Basic is Microsoft’s event-driven programming language and integrated development environment (IDE) for its Component Object Model (COM) programming model. It is relatively easy to learn and use because of its graphical development features and BASIC heritage. It has been replaced with VB.NET, and is very similar to VBA (Visual Basic for Applications), the programming language for the Microsoft Office product line.
