How to call functions in 16-bit dll?

How can I call some functions in a 16-bit dll in Win32 programming?

I have not the 32-bit version of the dll. Is there some way
for me to work with the 16-bit dll?

Thank you.

Hi! You can use Thunk compiler to create thin layer between your 32-bit app and 16-bit Dll. Example of this process you can find in MSDN or Dr Dob journal(sorry, i am not remember in what volume)
