Hi

I am writing a DLL in C++ which will be used by a Visual Basic program. I know that C++ and VB handle strings in different ways, but I'm not sure how to implement a function which will pass a string pointer (char *) back into the VB program. I am no expert in C++ and I don't understand strings and pointers fully. Any advice would be very helpful

Thanks
